Your Log File And You
The DownloaderForReddit creates a detailed log file to aid in diagnosing issues that users experience. Since this is a distributed desktop app, the log file is the only way to diagnose most issues happening in your local install. Almost any issue worth opening on GitHub will require that this log file be uploaded.
On Windows the log file is located at: C:/Users/your-user-name/AppData/Roaming/SomeGuySoftware/DownloaderForReddit/DownloaderForReddit.log
You can also easily access this directory from the app by clicking: File > Open Data Directory.
There may be several log files present in this folder. Extraneous log files will have a trailing number (ie: DownloaderForReddit.log.1). The latest log file will be the one that does not have a trailing number. This is the log file that will be needed to diagnose your issue.
