Log File Location

Postby Bacchus66 » Sat Jun 27, 2020 1:13 am

I'd love an option to specify the location for the log file. I really like to control what goes where in my documents directory, and in particular I want only a few select folders at the root of that drive. Naturally that means I really don't like apps creating their own directories without letting me set the location.

It wouldn't hurt if you also had a default location for favorites, instead of just storing the most recently opened.

So maybe something like:
Default Path="D:\Personal\Settings\Bulk Rename"

Which could work for both logs and Favorites. Or perhaps these:

Default Log Path="D:\Personal\Settings\Bulk Rename"
Default Favorite Path="D:\Personal\Settings\Bulk Rename"

If you want t give users the options to keep those separate.

Thanks in advance for listening. As well as for the great tool.

Absolutely. I don't use BRU that often, so I just delete the folder in Documents when I'm done using it, but it's nice for it to be as little of a dumping ground as possible.
