    The steps depend on your user interface mode.

From this tab, you can enable logging for file transfer actions and specify the folder where the logging file should be created and updated. The logging file is named "Transfer.log" and will automatically rename itself by appending a number to the filename; for example, when the file exceeds 64K in size, it is renamedTransfe1.log. The older transfer information is retained in this now-renamed file and the file Transfer.log continues the process of adding transfer information.
