Windows 10: What are these log files constantly generated by Windows

I cleared out Windows/Temp, but when I start up again and work, I get multiple log files with timestamps that are 2 to 5 minutes apart"C:\Windows\Temp\myname-20241014-0834.log""C:\Windows\Temp\myname-20241014-0835.log" "C:\Windows\Temp\myname-20241013-1316.log" Each file contains a lot of data such as 10/08/2024 15:36:11.531 OFFICEC2 0x3fa4 0x4a8 Activity bjtco Medium DroppedAggregatedActivity {"Name": "Office.Telemetry.DynamicConfig.ParseJsonConfig", "CV": "vZEzXG0oTky5KiMBx6G0zw.10.6", "ProcessIdentifier": "OfficeC2RClient.exe_16.0.18025.20104_X86_{5C3391BD-286D-4C4E-B92A-2301C7A1B4CF}"}

Saves log files ?

You can either read the files in Windows or my preferred method is.....

Download CCcleaner from here...........

You can then run cleaner, you will see the log files listed, then if you right click you can save as a text file and then have a read. You may also get an "error reporting" log listed seperatly.

 

Generating a .txt based file list in Windows 7

I want to be able to generate a .txt file that lists all the files and folders in a specific folder on my PC, but don't know the name of any programs that do that. Searched on google a bit and came up with this guide, but it's for XP and I can't seem to find some of the folder options to modify the .bat file. Any suggestions? Thanks

EDIT: The .bat file will do what I want if it is in the folder I want to do it in, but the option I want to add is having the right click option that it shows.

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
