Description

I like to have LibreHardwareMonitor log my sensor data so I can refer to it later if there is a problem, but over time these logs start taking up a lot of space and I have to reclaim that space manually by going to the location where the logs are stored and deleting them. I'd like to request an optional feature that allows me to set an amount of time that logs should be kept, after which LibreHardwareMonitor would automatically delete the old logs to keep from filling up my hard drive with them.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named in the issue. Start by locating the logging configuration and the code that writes sensor logs, then determine how an optional retention period can be configured and applied. Done means old logs are automatically removed after the selected period while logging remains unchanged when the option is unset.
