For Warcraftlogs, Electron uploader v4.4.5 (on Win 10): I’m trying to use Live logging to analyze M+ dungeons. But, it doesn’t work because live logging doesn’t allow me to select the combatlog. The normal “Upload a Log”, however, does show the WoWCombatLog file & it also allows me to specify the file type (see img); using this works fine. Any any ideas on how to fix Live Logging? thanks DS ![Live vs Normal](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex029/uploads/combatlogforums/original/2X/8/898dabe076cf31a9a2474a2ea5e90974aca2adb4.jpeg) ---

Live logging picks a directory not a file, so that you can begin live logging before the log file gets created by the game. ---
