Log files

When Export Tool runs, it creates a log file on your computer. Therefore, if you run Export Tool repeatedly, the size of free space on your computer will be reduced. To secure free space on your computer, it is important that you delete log files regularly. For information about the directory containing log files, see Java.

Export Tool returns a termination code when Export Tool finishes as listed in the following table:
