ColdFusion 2021 Log Files Links Disabled ???

Question

In our ColdFusion 2021 Administrator, the links to the Log File Names are disabled (not present, just text) and a number of Actions icons are missing (see attached screen shot for examples). The log files are present on the server, I can navigate to and open them, they are logging current activities. This is happening on both our servers (one development, one production).

Question:

Why do I not have links to the server log files like application.log?
How do I get the links back?

Our ColdFusion 2021 servers run on cloud based Windows 2019 server boxes.

Hello JFC,

In the list of log files, the buttons to View, Download, and Delete a log file have been removed. Also, the log files are no longer clickable.

It was indeed an intentional removal by Adobe in the Oct 2022 updates to cf2021 and cf2018. And yes, at your own risk you can get it back. See my post :
