Where AnyDesk keeps its logs

AnyDesk logs to %APPDATA%\AnyDesk\ad.trace on Windows. 1 other Windows log location is recorded below.

AnyDesk logs to ~/.anydesk/anydesk.trace on Linux. 1 other Linux log location is recorded below.

Paths are printed exactly as AnyDesk writes them. Environment variables like %LOCALAPPDATA% and $XDG_STATE_HOME are never expanded, so a path can be pasted straight into a shell. Where a path differs between installer types or shipping flavours, each one is racked as its own card below - why that happens.
