Build Identifier: 

The error log has an action "Clear Log Viewer", that action remains active even if the view does not contain any issues. Other entries like "Delete log" do behave differently, if no log is present (say we deleted the log before) the action is disabled...

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Error Log
2. Right-Click: Delete Log
3. Right-Click: "Clear Log Viewer" still active

Update: The same is true for the "Restore Log" action, even more drastically here since the UI seems to restore logs, but in fact this action only restores logs that have been removed via the "Clear Log Viewer" action, so if there really are no logs (say because the log was deleted previously) the action does not make sense and should be disabled to avoid ambiguity ...

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
