Reload log files location in Qlik Sense Desktop

I'm not able to locate log files for application data reloads in Qlik Sense Desktop.

The folder C:\ProgramData\Qlik\Sense\Log is empty

I could see some logs at location C:\Users\<user_name>\Documents\Qlik\Sense\Log however those are not application data reload logs

Is there any switch to enable logging in Qlik Sense?

I'm using Qlik Sense Desktop Nov 2023 Patch 5 on Windows 10

My bad, I've read your message a little bit too quickly. 
In my folder, I've a script Folder, with all Reload logs

Finally found the correct location. It is applicable in case your company is backing up your documents folder to OneDrive. In such a case, it becomes below:

C:\Users\<UserName>\OneDrive - <Company Name>\Documents\Qlik\Sense\Log\Script

It become confusing as C:\Users\<UserName>\Documents\Qlik\Sense\Log\Script existed too with all other log files except App qvf file and log file which is existing in OneDrive folder.

Hi, 

Qlik Sense Desktop logs are located here: C:\Users\<you>\Documents\Qlik\Sense\Log\

Kind regards

Like I mentioned, I see bunch of sub-folders in that location however couldn't find application reload log in any of them.

I'm looking for queries which were fired on database during application reload

Wonder why I don't have this script folder?

My folder was missing before I've done a reload, and then appears after one. I assume you've done a reload if you want to see the request executed by Qlik. Then I've no idea why this folder is missing, maybe try to upgrade you Qlik Sense Desktop ?

Yep, I've done plenty of reloads. I had to downgrade from Feb 24 version, as I was getting a strange issue with it i.e. it was running only in windowed mode. Tried all the solutions posted on the community for the same issue but no help, so had to downgrade.

Wonder if there is any setting which enables or disables logging similar to Qlikview
