can't disable auto-logging once enabled

I enable auto-logging by clicking Help>Enable Logging. That works just fine.

 

However, when I'm finished I click on the same menu item to disable and a popup appears: "You must restart After Effects in order to toggle auto-logging. Click Change and Quit to toggle logging and exit After Effects." I click Change and Quit but when AE restarts it still has logging enabled. Is there an alternative way to turn this off?

Thanks, but actually I notice that the setting turns itself off after a day or two anyway. It would be nice if it were documented to do so. Resetting prefs is not needed.

v24.5.0 (Build 52/MacOS) Still an issue. Instead of resetting carefully configured AE, I propose to reset to AE development process

This is happening to me too.

Try this: Reset the preferences of After Effects and then disable and restart. Worked for me.

Let us know if it helps.

 

Thanks,
