It might be more logical to store the chat logs - or perhaps a copy of the
chat logs - in the "My Documents" folder, or operating system equivalent.

The recycle bin might be a gamble, but it has better odds of allowing data
restoration that not putting the deleted files in the recycle bin, doesn't
it?

Putting deleted chat log files in the recycle bin is not meant to exclude
other needed improvements such as not deleted the files in the first place.

There are several jira issues about not deleting our chat logs and other
files such as settings fles that could use some more looking at and perhaps
some votes.

There are probably some other related issues in addition to the above.
