Preferences → Log Level

MetaDefender Drive saves a comprehensive set of logs by default, which can lead to a decrease in disk space over time. Lack of available disk space can impact scan performance and report management. MetaDefender Drive offers multiple log saving levels, enabling users to skip non-essential logs.
