Where QuickBooks Desktop keeps its logs

QuickBooks Desktop logs to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Intuit\QuickBooks\Log\<version>\QBWin.log on Windows.

Paths are printed exactly as QuickBooks Desktop 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.
