By default, when using a pre-packaged script, such as the ps1 or bat scripts downloaded from [https://dashboard.cybercrucible.com](https://dashboard.cybercrucible.com), the log file will be located in the root of the C: drive.

Installation log files are named `cc_installer.log`

GUI installers do not produce the same log files, as they are not headless, and all logs are displayed in the scrollable text section of the GUI window.
