## Ask in our free support forum [#nr-forum]

[New Relic's support forum](https://support.newrelic.com/s/) is our forum that's free for all users. New Relic users and employees engage every day in conversations to troubleshoot and solve issues, find workarounds, and discuss new features.

## Run the New Relic Diagnostics tool [#diagnostics]

[New Relic Diagnostics](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/using-new-relic/cross-product-functions/troubleshooting/new-relic-diagnostics) is our automated diagnostic tool for Linux, Windows, and Mac. If it detects a problem with any of our agents, it suggests solutions and saves troubleshooting logs that you can attach to tickets.

## Find answers in New Relic Docs and New Relic University [#find-answers]

New Relic's [docs site](https://docs.newrelic.com) contains helpful installation, configuration, and troubleshooting tips. From the [main page](http://docs.newrelic.com), select from frequently-used categories and topics, like [release notes](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/release-notes). Or, search from any page.
