A .UCCAPILOG file is a Microsoft UCC API Log File, created by Microsoft.

Open with Microsoft Windows Live Messenger. Available for Windows.

What is a .UCCAPILOG file?

A .UCCAPILOG file is a type of log file used by certain Microsoft programs. These programs use something called the Microsoft Unified Communications Client API, or UCCAPI for short. This API helps different Microsoft programs communicate and work together smoothly. The .UCCAPILOG file keeps a record of how well these programs are working together. It includes information that can help solve problems or improve the program's performance. As the program runs, it might add more information to this file.

You can open a .UCCAPILOG file using Microsoft Windows Live Messenger, although it's important to note that Windows Live Messenger was discontinued in 2013 and replaced by Skype. However, the file can still be relevant for troubleshooting and debugging purposes in applications that used the UCCAPI.

When developers create these log files, they follow a specific naming pattern: the name of the program, followed by "-UccApi-", and then a number. This number changes with each new log file. For example, a log file for Windows Live Messenger might be named "WindowsLiveMessenger-uccapi-0.uccapilog". Usually, you can find these files in a folder named "Tracing" within the user's home directory.

Even though Windows Live Messenger is no longer available, understanding .UCCAPILOG files can still be useful for developers or IT professionals who are working with older software or trying to troubleshoot issues related to the Microsoft Unified Communications Client API.
