Re: how to enable logging ?
To enable MultiCharts Logs, you need to do the following:
1. Close MultiCharts and make sure, that all MultiCharts processes ( https://www.multicharts.com/trading-sof ... _Processes ) are ended in Task Manager -> Processes tab.
2. Run The Registry (Click Windows button -> type regedit -> click enter).
3. Open the following Registry key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TS Support\BugSlayer\ and specify the key "Trace\Enable" value as True.
4. Open the Registry key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TS Support\BugSlayer\(Your MultiCharts Version)\ and delete all "Trace\Enable" there.

Re: how to enable logging ?
It is necessary to delete "Trace/Enable" keys in all the subfolders. The folders, where the keys are located should not be deleted.

Re: how to enable logging ?
In your case, I would personally prefer to change the logs folder location to a non-SSD drive so that these are available should a problem/error arise.could you give us , how to disable writting "LMAXServerHost_NET_Trace.txt" it's one of the bigest log on MC64 !
It's realy a problem on small SSD

Re: how to enable logging ?
Thanks JoshM,
I know this feature, i don't want to buy a hdd for logs files.
When you are in alpha or beta release, I understand that it is useful to have these files, but in the final version, I search the maximun power to calculate my stategy and writing log take Go and power for nothing.
Of course if there was a problem I would call logs again to find bug as usual ...

Re: how to enable logging ?
Ah okay, I assumed you had another hdd or usb drive besides the ssd.I know this feature, i don't want to buy a hdd for logs files.
So you're also fine with disabling all logs instead of just the LMAX log file? In that case, that is already possible (see here).When you are in alpha or beta release, I understand that it is useful to have these files, but in the final version, I search the maximun power to calculate my stategy and writing log take Go and power for nothing.
A nice MultiCharts feature will be to disable logging only for real-time strategies (with the rest of the logs intact), since these are large in size and probably not that often helpful (e.g., disconnections are already tracked in the data feed and broker log files).
