Let's say user john.doe has downloaded and extraced the OpenShift CodeReady Container installation files, such as crc-windows-amd64.zip. Assuming john.doe home directory is C:\Users\john.doe, when the crc.exe setup command is invoked, the hidden .crc directory will be created in john.doe home directory, like this.

C:\Users\john.doe\.crc

Within the hidden .crc directory will be the crc.log file, like this.

C:\Users\john.doe\.crc\crc.log

When invoking various crc commands, such as crc setup and crc start, --log-level debug can be used to log events at log level debug.

crc setup --log-level debug
