Hello,

I am having currently logging some debugging files to resolve some website issue. I am getting files from Console and Network tab, but when I try to click "Record" from Performance tab, the profiler is just stuck on "Initializing profiler" status instead starting the recording and the tab starts to slow down drastically. This only happens to this tab where I opened the website to be debugged, the devtool works smoothly with all other tabs.

Try opening DevTools on DevTools and check if there are any error messages in the console of DT #2.
Note: you'll have to have your DT #1 undocked to be able to open DT #2.

Hi Alexei,

I have my DT undocked, how do I open a second DT?
