The crash log is not in the game directory but in the application directory and is named factorio-current.log.
On windows: %appdata%\Factorio
(usually C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Factorio)

This directory only contains another folder named "saves"

It seems to run now, after updating windows to the latest version.
Thx for your help anyways. :D
