## Symptoms

- Although "Enable Logging" is unchecked/disabled in the Advanced options, Endpoint Security VPN client log files in `C:\Windows\Internet Logs\` consume substantial amounts of disk space over time. The log file names are prefixed with either `tvDebug*`, or `TracSrvWrapper_*`

## Cause

"Enable logging" (in the Advanced options) enables Firewall Driver logging. The Firewall Driver log rotates with every reboot. It can only be stopped by disabling logging, and manually removing the file.  

If you do not delete the previous log files, log file rotation continues to occur until the file is deleted.  

The `tvdebug.log` file must be removed manually.  

Reboot will trigger file rotation and continuation of writing to log, unless the registry from this solution is implemented.
