Frequently Asked Questions

This page covers the most common issues with registration, installation, browser profile creation, and profile launches. Before troubleshooting, confirm whether you are using the desktop client or the web app because they support different operations.

Login or Registration Fails

  • SMS verification code not received: Confirm that the phone number is correct, check blocked messages, and request another code after the countdown ends. If the code still does not arrive, contact support.
  • Password rejected: The password must contain at least 8 characters, including both letters and numbers.
  • WeChat login fails: Scan the QR code again, follow the official account as prompted, and complete account linking.
  • Forgotten password: Click Forgot Password on the password login page and use an SMS verification code to set a new password.

The Desktop Client Cannot Be Installed or Launched

Confirm that the installer came from the Download page and matches your operating system. Keep your network connection available during the first launch and login. On a managed corporate network, allow the client to access ZYBrowser services.

A Browser Profile Cannot Be Launched

Check the following:

  1. Make sure you are using the ZYBrowser desktop client rather than the web app.
  2. Confirm that the profile is not already Starting or Running before launching it again.
  3. Verify the proxy host, port, and protocol, then test the proxy again in the desktop client. For detailed checks, see Proxy Troubleshooting.
  4. Confirm that the client is up to date and that the network connection and local disk space are sufficient.

A Created Profile Is Missing

Check the active team, search terms, and filters. For team profiles, follow Switch or Create a Team to confirm that the correct team is active and that you have permission to view its profiles. If the profile is still missing, refresh the list and check its name again.
