Unable to Save Log

I have the log set to save in [username]/.MakeMKV, which is the default location.

However, in the log readout at the bottom of the program it lists it as saving at C:\Users\[username]/.MakeMKV, which is wrong. And thus, no log file is created.

Browsing for the folder just gets me the same result, with the incorrect slash. Even selecting a different folder still insists on saving it into the incorrect [username]/.MakeMKV path. So it's impossible to set the log location.

That's just the way that msg prints... even when the path is syntactically correct on the 'General' tab in preferences. If the log is not being saved, it's typically a permissions issue. No other messages?

There are no other relevant messages in the log section, no. There is also no log file. There used to be one, though.

I just tested this, but misread the location msg. Log is written to C:\Users\[username]/MakeMKV_log.txt, so up one level from the defined Data directory.
