Change Date
As long as the VFS Service continues to run, a new Event Log file (*-*-*.txt) is
generated and saved, using the current calendar date for the file name, for every
24 hour period, beginning just after midnight.
To view the log for another date, click on the Change Date command button in
the tool bar, then select the desired log file.
VFS Event Log files can be viewed at any time, even when WinVfs is not
running. The log files are simple text (.txt) files that can be opened directly
using the Windows Notepad application, or any other text editor.
