5.3 Configuring saving Windows log files
As a result of Windows updates and other operations, larger quantities of data can accumulate
that are no longer required, e.g. temporary update and system files or Windows log files
(CBS.log).
The PCU base software contains 2 batch files, which you can use to configure how files such
as these are saved:
● Deactivate saving
– Saving new log files CBS.log is deactivated, and existing files are deleted:
C:\Windows\Logs\CBS
– The temporary directory is cleared once:
C:\Windows\Temp
– The data storage medium cleanup is carried out.
● Activate saving
– Reactivates that new log files CBS.log are saved for diagnostics.
You can refer to the information file in the following directory to identify whether the log files
are being saved or not: C:\Windows\Logs\CBS
Precondition
● You require administrator rights to run batch files.
