+              Vesktop and Vencord are two separate things. This issue tracker is only for Vesktop. If your Vesktop crashes, it is very likely an issue with Vencord, not Vesktop.

+              If you are experiencing any of the following issues, go to our [Discord server](https://discord.gg/D9uwnFnqmd) for support:
+              - Vesktop doesn't work or crashes
+              - A Vencord plugin doesn't work anymore
+              - You are having issues installing Vesktop
+              - You want to ask a question about Vesktop, Vencord or one of its plugins
