Diagnostic switch for logging turned on, now I'm locked out

Unity Engine

I was trying to figure out where UnityEngine.Debug.Log() was actually putting the logs I was needing (since they never show up in the console, for some reason). I did a search in preferences for “log” and found a bunch of options. So I started turning on anything that said it logged info. A notice said I had to restart the editor for changes to take effect, and when I did, the splash screen came up, loaded about half way, then shut down unexpectedly… Now I can’t open any of my projects, I can’t create new projects, I can’t get into the editor to save my life.

I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled the hub and the editor in question. I’ve installed alternate editor versions. Nothing seems to work and I’m completely stumped. If anyone knows what the hell is going on and how to fix it, I would be SOOOOO grateful for the help.

Check the editor log for errors

never mind. Thank you just the same.

Check Console upper right corner. There’s three buttons that filter out the info, warning and error logs. If you have one or more disabled, you won’t see any of the logs of that kind.
