@nathanfranke I think file logging should always be disabled in the project manager, actually.

I think this is a regression from https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/40121

I checked it a bit. user:// seems to return $HOME if no project is open. We should set aside a different directory like ~/.local/share/godot/.
