Greetings!

Is there any way to change the folder the scan logs are stored in?

I could not find any relevant setting and I would really like to store them somewhere else than on the C drive.

Thanks

Hello @isurfer and welcome to our Community!

Thanks for your question, but, for now, it is not possible to change the location of the logs.

Your query is interesting, though: how would you benefit from if, if it would be possible? Logs are insignificantly in terms of space occupied and the path is quite straightforwards to identify.

Happy holidays,

Mike

Hi Mike,

Thanks for coming back.

I was looking for this setting (and therefore asked here) as I generally want to keep my C drive as clean as possible (it's an SSD drive). I prefer to keep all data (I consider logs to be data :) ) on a different physical (and larger) drive. I evem move my TEMP folder.

I know it's not an issue any more for SSDs (with TRIM etc.) , it's just a practice from earlier days :)

Happy holidays to you too.

That'a a very healthy practice @isurfer . At which I also adhere from earlier years 😊 and now I'm also teaching my 10yo son to keep drive C: as clean and empty as possible, even in the era of 1TB SSDs. Thanks for discussing this with us and enjoy your holidays!
