What are the types of logs?

Extraction logs

• The main log of the extraction process is located in the export folder, the filename is “log_full.txt”. It contains information about extracted files and everything else you can see on the screen during the extraction process and during the report generation.

• The summary of items that were extracted and what has failed during the extraction process (if there were failures) is in the "log_short.txt".

• Screenshots of user settings are located in the export folder, at “pdf_files/wizard_screenshots” or “html_files/wizard_screenshots”.

Application Logs

Application logs store information about how the application runs and possible errors, it is stored in file main.log located in “Documents/MOBILedit Forensic/Logs”. If the incident is reproducible, we recommend deleting this file and running the program again in order to get fresh logs.

Communication logs

There are also communication logs, located in “Documents/MOBILedit Forensic/Logs”. If the incident is reproducible, we recommend deleting its content and running the program again in order to get fresh logs of the incident.
