Help

Answers to the problems people run into most. Every problem QuickType shows ends with a code like QT-MARKET-402 or QT-WIN-7F3A; the error codes page says what each one means. Still stuck? Ask in Discussions inside QuickType, or email support@voltyn.org with the code.

Installing

Windows says "Windows protected your PC"

That's normal for new apps without a paid signing certificate. Click More info, then Run anyway. QuickType installs for your Windows account only and doesn't need admin rights.

Where did it install?

In your user folder (AppData\Local\Programs\QuickType), with a Start menu and desktop shortcut. Your projects, settings and keys are in your user folder too, so reinstalling never touches them.

How do updates work?

QuickType checks when it opens and every 6 hours. A new version downloads quietly and installs the next time you restart it. You can turn that off in Account > App.

Signing in

The GitHub code expired, or the browser didn't open

Press Try again on the sign-in screen for a fresh code. If the browser doesn't open, press Open GitHub and type the code shown. You can also use QuickType without an account: everything that runs on your PC still works.

It says I'm signed out

Sign-ins last a month and renew each time QuickType checks in. If you've been offline longer than that, sign in again; nothing is lost.

Building

No AI is connected

Open Account > AIs. Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini or Copilot with your own account, or install the free local AI (Ollama), which runs on your PC with no account.

A project stopped or says it needs you

Open it from Home. If there's a question, answer it; if it's paused, press Resume. When an AI hits its usage limit, QuickType switches to another one or waits until the limit resets, and says which.

The free local AI is slow

It runs on your graphics card. With less than 6 GB of graphics memory it falls back to the processor and gets slow. Use an online AI for the big steps, or pick a smaller local model in Account > Local AI.

A step keeps failing its checks

Open the project to see what the checker said about the step. You can tell the team what to change in the project's chat, skip the step, or run it again one step at a time.

The Community

Buying a copy

Press Buy. Stripe's payment page opens in your browser, and the copy is held for you for 30 minutes. When you've paid, go back to QuickType and press I've paid. The copy shows up in your Inventory.

Cashing out

Your money page (Community > Your money) shows what you can cash out, everything you sold and bought, and where every cent of each sale went. Money from a sale clears 7 days after it. Set up payouts once (Stripe's page asks who you are and where to send it), then cash out cleared money to your bank once you have $20 or more, for a flat $2 a cash out. It shows as On its way, then Sent.

Your profile

Anyone can look you up under Community > People. Change your shown name, bio, link, colour and scene, and pin up to 3 listings, from Account > Your profile > Edit. Your earnings and what you bought are never on it.

My account says it's suspended

DevOps suspended it for the reason shown on your Account page. You can still build; posting, selling and listing are off until the date shown. Email support@voltyn.org if you think it's a mistake.

Someone is bothering me

Press Block on any of their posts: you won't see what they write, and they can't reply to your discussions. Press Report to send a post to the people who run the Community.

Pro

Pro is $5 a month, with the first 7 days free. Or watch a 1-minute ad for 4 hours of Pro (up to 6 a day); end the ad early and there's no reward. It gives your AI the whole library of ready parts and designs. Cancel any time in Plans; you keep Pro until the end of the month you paid for.
