I'm trying to save all my logs and move them to an external HD in windows and I've encountered a problem.

In order to save a log in a file format that can be moved, I need to:

Open the log in MUSHclient
Save it as a txt file
Save that Txt file in another folder somewhere.
Open log2, go BACK through the menu to get to MUSHClient's Log folder.
Repeat process.

This is incredibly tedious.

Everything I've tried doesn't let me copy log files, open them in other things, or any other option.

Later versions of Windows do something strange with files saved in certain places.

I suggest you change the directory that the logs are saved to, to something like somewhere in "Documents" and then you shouldn't have this issue.
