It might be necessary to raise the logging level for Qlik Sense Desktop's Engine to Debug.

The information in this article is provided as-is and to be used at own discretion. Depending on tool(s) used, customization(s), and/or other factors ongoing support on the solution below may not be provided by Qlik Support.

Close the application
Edit the Settings.ini file in C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\Qlik\Sense
Add the following lines under [Settings 7]
```
Verbosity=900
SystemLogVerbosity=5
```
Verify that there is an empty line at the end of the file. Without it, the setting file is invalidated.
Save, and relaunch the desktop client

Hello @abTech

The Qlik Sense Desktop client does not have a trial itself. Are you running with Qlik Cloud (which has a trial)? This does not install a client and will therefore not have a settings.ini and does not support the configuration of the parameter you were looking for.

All the best,
Sonja
