Logs

After setting the log level to Trace, I restarted VS Code and reproduced the issue. Afterwards, none of the folders in "%APPDATA%\Code\User\globalStorage\ms-vscode.powershell\logs" appeared to have been modified today.

This issue might be related to https://github.com/PowerShell/vscode-powershell/issues/5223. But that one uses "$_" instead of "$private:".
