Gather Logs
Gather Logs provides a way to collect system logs and place the log files in the D:\Service directory for
retrieval by the online center. These log files do not include protected data such as crash dumps and
keyboard shadow logs. The customer can collect logs (including protected data) using Alt+D when
Protected Data is checked. Log files are compressed into a .zip file and the file path and name display.
If the application software is not running, use the Gather Logs shortcut on the Windows desktop.
