Hi Pete. Yes the file that is created is called ntbtlog.txt and you will find it in your C:\Windows folder.

Where do I find the boot log?

I selected boot log for start up and the system indicates that boot log is selected but I cannot find a boot log anywhere. Is it called something else? Where is it?

2017-12-04T22:23:55+00:00 Is there any way to get these logs to show up on screen as windows loads, similar to the way it is in Linux? I know that printable text is possible because it is built into Windows NT kernel, and is used for the bootloader chkdsk.
