install4j: how to create uninstall log files like the install log file

I purchased the install4j to make my Java installer, which is in good condition, after the installation is complete, I can find the xx/installDir/. Install4j/installation.log file, this is what I want, but I also want to uninstall.log file, I temporarily didn't find such a configuration, I need the uninstall.log file, which is generated in the installation directory after uninstalled. So that users can view the uninstall information after uninstall. how can i do , Thanks!

There is no permanent place for the uninstallation log because the installation directory will be deleted.

You can pass

-Dinstall4j.keepLog=true

to the uninstaller, so the temporary log file in the %TEMP% directory will not be deleted. To save it somewhere else, pass

-Dinstall4j.alternativeLogfile=[path to writable log file]

to the uninstaller.
