RetroArch - How to Generate: Log in Windows
43What are logs? Why are they so important?
#RetroArch and its underlying #libretro technology is designed to run on many different combinations of hardware, operating system, libretro core, and content. It is not possible for a volunteer-based open source project to test all possible combinations.
The answer to this dilemma involves "logs", which RetroArch and other libretro software use to record essential information about your system and its function that other users and volunteers need in order to help troubleshoot problems and improve compatibility with new systems.
If you installed RetroArch:
1.Open the Windows start menu
2.Search and open RetroArch (log to file)
Once you exit RetroArch, a file called retroarch-log.txt should be stored in the
RetroArch folder, in order to retrieve it:
1.Open the windows start menu
2.Search and open RetroArch Data Folder
3.Find retroarch-log.txt
If you haven't installed RetroArch and have a folder with it:
