TC Logs don't remove stored images when deleted

I did a really quick test of something.   I created a function that simply logged a picture.

function yada()

{

    Log.Picture(Sys.Desktop)

}

My first test was to see where that picture got stored.  What I saw was that the picture was stored directly in the folder where the log files are created.  There was no sub folder for the log picture.



If, in TestComplete, I right click on the log and select "remove" and then, in the corresponding dialog, also select remove, the log is removed from the project but the log folder and the corresponding files are still present on the hard drive.



If I right click on the log and select "remove" and then select "Delete", the entire log file, folder, and all files contained within that folder are removed from the hard drive.



So, this leads me to ask the question: What "log image folder" are you looking at and how was it generated?  Could you clarify a bit more as to what problem you're facing?

I updated to the most recent release and did a number of test runs then deleted (I always choose delete and not remove) the logs from the project explorer.  The stored log results folders seem to all have removed correctly now.  No idea what I did differently.  I'll keep an eye out and let you know if I see it again.  It does explain why my stored folder kept growing in size!



Also - any tips on searching the forum?  I'd love to see advanced search capabilities but it doesn't look like it was one of the improvements in the recent website update.  I know you don't work for SmartBear - just thought I'd see if you had any insight.  :)



Thanks!
