ESET Insiders Trooper 66 Posted February 22, 2022 ESET Insiders Share Posted February 22, 2022 I started noticing recently that my machine seemed to be using up more disk space than usual. After taking a look around, I found the culprit. It is located at C:\ProgramData\ESET\ESET Security\Diagnostics\ The file in question is named EpfwLog.pcapng On some endpoints, this file was larger than 300GB! What can I do from a policy standpoint to avoid this happening in the future? For now, I was able to delete the files in question using PDQ deploy, so a crisis was averted. Appreciate any input on this. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moreover, enabling it triggers the following notification that pops up in regular intervals until you disable logging to remind you: Trooper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
