'Windows credential provider logging

I am simply looking to add logging output to a file in a Windows credential provider v2, I am not sure on the best way to achieve it.

I am also looking to run a loop within Credential provider to check if a file exists but unsure where to start the function from?

To monitor for some system Hardware have a look at SampleHardwareEventCredentialProvider.

To log something you can always use system event log in two simple calls.

If you develop it using Visual Studio, you can use Nuget library called Plog

You can install it by right clicking the project name --> Manage NuGet packages ... --> then search Plog

I started to use this library last year, and it works like charm. https://github.com/SergiusTheBest/plog
