    After a Microsoft upgrade to my Windows 10 I've been getting 5 to 10 pages (in notebook format) of c drive log files. They always appear at start up in the upper left portion of my screen. I've searched everything in windows and Google trying to find a way to turn off this logging, but to date, no luck..Anyone..Ideas ?

    Logging can be turned on and off in many programs. Which program is creating the log file(s) on your Desktop?

    I'm using Windows 10 build 10586.29
    This did not happen before the MS upgrade from build 10576.0

    I am also running the same build (10586.29) and do not see a log file on every bootup.

    Can you tell from the log file which program might be creating it? It may be a program that is somehow incompatible with Windows 10 build 10586.29.

    Note that there is no single location where you could go and simply disable all logging for all programs.
