What it does

This policy setting allows you to configure the level of detail recorded by event logging for the Files preference extension, and to turn on tracing for the Files extension. Logging and tracing provide diagnostic information for troubleshooting. If you enable this policy setting, you can configure event logging and turn on tracing for the Files extension for client computers. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, by default event logging for this extension includes only warnings and errors, and tracing for this extension is turned off. Notes: 1. User Configuration tracing: To perform tracing for items in this preference extension listed under User Configuration, you must provide a path in the "User trace" box to the location where a user trace file can be created on the client computer, and you must turn on the "Tracing" option. If there are no preference items under User Configuration in this extension, no user trace file is created. 2. Computer Configuration tracing: This preference extension is available under User Configuration only, so computer configuration tracing is not applicable. 3. Group Policy Modeling query tracing: To perform tracing for items in this preference extension when you perform a Group Policy Modeling query, you must provide a path in the "Planning trace" box to the location where a planning trace file can be created on the computer where you run modeling, and you must turn on the "Tracing" option. If you are not performing Group Policy Modeling or there are no preference items in this extension, no planning trace file is created.

The OMA-URI is an inferred ADMX-backed Policy CSP candidate derived from the source ADMX file name and policy name.
Some Microsoft policies use built-in Policy CSP pages whose area names don't match the ADMX file name, so verify the candidate against Microsoft Learn before deployment.
