Problem:

I have upgraded my version of Server Express, now I have this XFHLOG file that gets created.  It did not happen in the previous version. Why is this and how do I turn it off?

Resolution:

The LOG option is documented as follows:

When LOG is set to ON, any unusual file-related situations, such as corrupted files, or automatic file recovery, are noted in a log file for later examination.

This option used to be OFF by deault.

You can turn it off in the extfh.cfg file:
[XFH-DEFAULTS]
LOG=OFF

The XFHLOG file that gets created is in binary format, you can display the text version of it using the cobfhprint command.
