How do I read the Dropbox logs?

Our Internet works through a Microsoft Forefront proxy server with HTTP protocol. On one computer, the Dropbox loses the network several times a day, only restarting the Dropbox helps. I want to read the logs, in which folder are they stored?

    Hi rosen623, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

     

    The logs would be visible in the Dropbox application folder, however, these are not human-readable. 

     

    Currently, there is no workaround to be able to read the logs.

     

    If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.

    What program can I use to read logs?
    In which file is the log recorded?
