Don't get me wrong. I don't mind looking at log files and seeing what's under the hood.
But when log files hint at code from different development tracks are getting mixed even though how harmless, it is not a good look to outsiders/users. As what it did giving OP the impression that it is "bleeding edge". I also concur with him that when log files are "off" that it should be "off". For this particular thread topic, the mks-sandbox.exe cannot seem to function without one.
I understand how software development projects go. Show me a software development project that does not get messy. :smileylaugh: They all are; they just differ in the degree of messiness.
I do appreciate the VMware team's work. It is very complex software.
