_Location of adif log file_

I regularly import wsjtx_log.adi into my DX4WIN log.  I would like to be able to select the computer directory into which the wsjt-x adif log file is to be saved. Perhaps the program could cause the log entries to be saved at the default location and concurrently at the location I specify.

Hi Mark,

you can do this simply by creating a hard link to the log file in the directory you wish it to appear. For example on Windows open a CMD prompt and change the current working directory to the directory where you want the log file to appear and type:

mklink /H wsjtx_log.adi "%LocalAppData%\WSJT-X\wsjtx_log.adi"

Note that the file created is not a copy of the WSJT-X log file, it is the same file, so do not delete it's contents if you want them to remain in both locations. It is safe to delete the file itself but do not delete the file in the WSJT-X log directory unless you mean it as WSJT-X uses it for worked before determination.

Also note that several people have said the above command requires Administrator rights to execute, that is not correct and just a normal CMD prompt window is fine.
