Give it 30 minutes. If it's still not sharing, reset the app.
Most sharing problems on Windows come from sleep mode or old app data. Both are quick to fix.

⬢ Wait a little first
Right after you start the app, it's normal for Honeygain to share nothing for 10–30 minutes. If nothing changes after that, reset the app.
⬢ Reset the Honeygain app
This clears the app's local data. Your earnings and account aren't affected.

⬢ Keep Windows from sleeping
Honeygain can't share while your computer is asleep. Change these settings so it stays awake:
| Windows version |
