      Every time the launcher is started the launcher_log file is created inside the .minecraft folder and the old launcher_log is compressed and stored in the logs subfolder.

      However on the latest version (2.3.619) every time the launcher is started the old launcher_log is not stored in the logs subfolder anymore and a new launcher_log file is created with the name launcher_logx (where x is a number) and this goes on and on every time the launcher is started.

      I have attached the screenshot of what happens in the .minecraft folder and one of the launcher_log files.
