You have been given a solution. Create a folder, aka directory, where 
you would ordinarily put data and move your gnucash file there. Gnucash 
will create those log files in the same directory that the data file is in.

But that you have this problem indicates an underlying issue 
understanding what the "desktop" directory (file folder) should be used 
for. Except possibly as a temporary place while moving things around, 
what you normally should have there are just "shortcuts", pointers to 
things as opposed to the things themselves. The desktop is to have an 
easy/quick way to get to things as opposed to where you want to store them.
