Hi there

When I navigate to the logs file folder on my PC, I'm missing a whole bunch of logs, however when I open the logs folder within MUSHclient itself, all the logs are there. Is there a way to fix this, have the logs show up in both places?

Thanks!

Windows 10 "cleverly" protects you by not letting the program write to its default install location of Program Files. Thus the logs are really written somewhere else, if you go looking for them.

One solution is to just change the default log file locations to somewhere else, like a folder in "My Documents".

To retrieve your existing logs see the link above, or open them in MUSHclient and then save them again somewhere else.

Windows 10 is evil. Thank you, I'll change the log location from here on out. Someone helped me find them in C:\Users\<account name>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\MUSHclient\logs for anyone having similar issues with this.
