## Reviewing the self-hosted runner application log files

You can monitor the status of the self-hosted runner application and its activities. Log files are kept in the `_diag` directory where you installed the runner application, and a new log is generated each time the application is started. The filename begins with \_Runner__, and is followed by a UTC timestamp of when the application was started.

You can view the update activities in the \_Runner__ log files. For example:
