Where Galaxy stores log files?

Windows:

%programdata%\GOG.com\Galaxy\logs

most commonly in C:\ProgramData\GOG.com\Galaxy\logs\

macOS:

/Users/Shared/GOG.com/Galaxy/Logs

How to attach log files in a bug report?

In most cases it is enough to attach one, the newest** log file:

plugin-<plugin_name>-<guid>.log.txt

Make sure you do all reproduction steps just before attaching log file:

  • if "install button" doesn't work, click it
  • if it crashes, just attach logs after a crash
  • if there are problems with achievements or imported games, restart Galaxy, and wait a few minutes

** Logs are rolled. That means your newest plugin actions are written into plugin-<plugin_name>-<guid>.log.txt. When its size is about 5Mb, it's renamed to plugin-<plugin_name>-<guid>.log.1, previous plugin-<plugin_name>-<guid>.log.1 renamed to plugin-<plugin_name>-<guid>.log.2 etc.
