Summary

Added troubleshooting guidance for network/VPN-related sign-in failures and explicit log file locations

Security assessment

While the changes help diagnose network security controls (TLS inspection, domain blocking), they focus on connectivity troubleshooting rather than addressing a specific security vulnerability. The log location disclosure improves diagnostics but doesn't directly relate to security flaws.

+The Amazon Quick desktop application might fail to sign in or load responses only when you are connected to a corporate network, VPN, or secure web gateway, but work normally when you disconnect. When that happens, your organization's network is likely blocking or inspecting the connection. Complete the following steps with your network administrator.

+  1. Confirm that the required Amazon Quick domains are reachable from your network. For the list of domains to add to your allow list, see [Network access and required domains](./desktop-security.html#desktop-network-access).
+
+  2. If your organization inspects encrypted traffic (TLS or SSL inspection), your operating system's certificate store must trust the inspection certificate authority, or the Amazon Quick domains must be excluded from inspection. Your network administrator can confirm whether inspection is active and configure either option.

+If the issue persists after your network administrator confirms the domains are reachable and resolves any inspection issues, export your application logs (see Exporting diagnostics) and contact AWS Support.
