Location of Interactive Brokers Logs
Logs are stored in the TWS settings directory, C:\Jts\ and then your user subdirectory by default on a Windows computer (the default can be configured differently on the login screen).
The path to the log file directory can be found by:
- Log in to Trader Workstation or IB Gateway (You must use the platform your API is connecting to)
- Press Ctrl-Alt-U to display the user directory window.
- This will reveal path such as
C:\Jts\detcfsvirl\.
Due to privacy regulations, logs are encrypted before they are saved to disk. To review them on your machine, you may need to Export Your Logs.
