Where'd this one go? Our parser for it suggests that server logs are stored here. @lhaagsma?

I did a full install on 2 machines, used RustDesk to connect them. On both hosts, no C:\ProgramData\RustDesk. But just say the word and I'll add it back in.

Not sure based on what I added this path. Perhaps I added this path 'just to be sure' as I believe Anydesk does store data there and the two are very similar.

If there's no evidence that RustDesk actually stores data there then I think it's fine to remove it.
