Any comparative log can be saved to a file and opened at a later time.
Example
Generate and save a log, recording original information about the system, to a file named previous.xml. After changes
to the system have been made, open ESET SysInspector and allow it to generate a new log. Save it to a file named
current.xml.
In order to track changes between those two logs, click File > Compare logs. The program will create a comparative
log showing differences between the logs.
The same result can be achieved if you use the following command line option:
SysIsnpector.exe current.xml previous.xml
