Solution

 

Prerequisites

  • Having access to the Device's software.

 

A log file is a file that records either events that occur in an application while it runs. Logging is the act of keeping a log. In the simplest case, messages are written to a single log file. They are essential to understand the activities of complex systems, particularly in the case of applications with user interaction.
Mobilogy uses basically 2 types of logs: UME and INFRA logs. These log files can be found in the following paths:

 

 

 

Application-level logging - UME (Desktop)

 

  • In the Run window (Win + R), type %appdata% and press Enter.
