# Log Files

If you run into issues in WinPE, there are several files that you can use for reference.  The details of the Windows Image or ISO that you selected are contained in root of X:\\.  These files are only available in WinPE and are destroyed as soon as the computer reboots

More detailed logs are located in X:\OSDCloud\Logs. These files are also no longer available after you reboot

![](/files/ZEcsLk9chS1aKDkJ64R9)

Finally, C:\OSDCloud\Logs will contain OSDCloud.json which is an export of all the OSDCloud Variables. This file will persist after rebooting from WinPE
