Because of the Log files, I learned quickly to have the data file in its own
directory which gets backed up with the rest of my files. This is still
happening on WindowsOn Linux flatpak though, it is different. I am now finding

Thanks for the reply.
I don't speak Lisp or its dialects much, but at adding a log directory
"sounds" fixable fairly easily enough for a fairly experienced
programmer. Is my opinion
Tom, Stan,
The log files are not just error logging files but a means of reconstructing
the current file just before a failure from the last backup file before
failure and the log files between them. Agreed it would be nice to have a
subfolder of the folder with the main GnuCash data file in it
IIRC /tmp is wiped clean on every reboot. At least on some versions of some
OS(s). So not a good place for log files.
A subdirectory of the directory in which the main file resides should be fine.

The .log files are more like historical data snapshots than application info.
Having them all in a subfolder would be nice with less clutter. I wouldn’t say
they belong in a system temp folder. I don’t think I’ve ever seen any app put
its lock files in a separate location from the file being

I see by the response(s) that it's not as simple as a setting.
However, there's no reason you couldn't do a move of the file(s) with some
sort of script. Depends on the operating system you're working under. For
example, if you're running on Windows, you could add a command or two to the
shortcut
