Where is the location of the Logs directory? I don't see one in the install folder also if you don't mind sailing the high seas you could test hash auger in windows 7 that way
While I sincerely want to help resolve the issue, as a software developer who makes their living from writing code, I am not a fan of that kind of workaround. Plus, there is the practical matter that most copies acquired in that way are riddled with viruses and other malware - not something I really want to risk on my dev machines.
There should be a Logs folder in the data directory (C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\congeriessoftware\hashauger) regardless of the install location. If the Logs directory does not exist, then the software could not write a logs file, which may mean that the app is crashing due to a permissions issue accessing the directory within AppData. You may want to verify that the hashauger folder in AppData is not marked as read-only.
