Hi,
I use logViewPlus, this morning when I opened a log file I was missing the log files and filters navigation pane
I already tried to reset my settings to installation default but it did not help.
I do not have the navigation bar in a separate window, and I can not find how to open it.
How could I fix this issue and open the log files and filters navigation pane? This is really affecting my work.
Thank you.

Hi FM,

Thanks for reporting this issue.

I am not sure how the issue occured, but you can fix it by closing LogViewPlus and deleting:
%appdata%\LogViewPlus\layout.xml

If it happens again, please let me know what you were doing with the application before the incident.

Hope that helps,

Toby
