Thank for this tutorial ! I post what I found here about modifiyng log destination folder :
We’re excited to announce the release of Game Logs System (GLS), a plugin that brings log viewing directly into your game with a specialized overlay. GLS lets you instantly access detailed logs with flexible filtering options by class, object, tag, and more — even in shipping builds. It works across platforms and supports gamepad and touchscreen input, making it ideal for consoles and mobile devices.
For a streamlined debugging experience, check out GLS on [Unreal Fab].
