Example 1

    sudo apt-get update 1> apt-get.log

will capture the results of sudo apt-get update into apt-get.log

Example 2

Capture both stdout and stderr to a file (below command is wrong and will produce an error. But no matters if the execution (or command) is wrong or correct, the results will be captured inside apt-get-error.log)

sudo apt-get updATE > apt-get-error.log 2>&1

For Windows.. hmm sorry, I don't know. Better would be to ask on a Windows help desk (forum .. etc)

For Linux, you can execute the script from a terminal and follow the examples above to capture the output.
