Export logs

You can export logs as tab delimited text (.txt) files. You can customize the log content by specifying which log, log elements, and time range to include in the export. For example, you can specify to include only the System Log error-related log entries from between January 2nd 2016 08:00:00 and January 6th 2014 07:59:59 in your export.

To export a log:

  1. In the Export Log window's File name field, specify a name for the exported log file.

    By default, exported log files are saved in your My Documents folder. However, you can specify a different location by clicking the browse button next to the field.

  2. Any criteria you have selected to target the content of the exported log is listed in the Filters field. You cannot edit this field. If you need to change your criteria, close the window, and repeat steps 1-2.
  3. Specify the time period you want the export to cover. Specify the Start date and time and End date and time fields respectively. You can select the date by clicking the arrow:

    To specify an exact time, overwrite the required time elements (hours:minutes:seconds) with the needed values. In this example, the hours element is being overwritten:

  4. Click Export to export the log content.
