Windows event veiwer

What is the best way to use the event viewer? How can I fix the errors that are found

If you look at the summary of administrative events, you will see the list of the most recent. Look at each of the errors, then Google/Bing the event ID or message text for solutions possible.
Some errors are not debilitating system, so do not panic if there is no solutions to find :-)

  • Place to query windows event log?

    Hello:

    Is it possible to query the CVI windows event log?

    I don't see all the Windows event recorder functions available in the windows SDK provided with CVI 8.

    What are the functions of windows recorder that I refer:

    http://msdn.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa385784 (vs.85) .aspx

    I am interested in the capture of application errors from the event logs on the stations running Teststand and CVI.

    Thank you
    Dave

    You can use the ReadEventLog function.  It is documented in the Windows 2000 RC2 SDK distributed with CVI FDS 8.5.1.  Do not know if it is documented in the SDK software distributed with CVI 9.x

    ReadEventLog

    ReadEventLog

    The ReadEventLog function reads a large number of entries in the specified event log. The function can be used to read the journal entries in chronological order or reverse chronological.

    BOOL ReadEventLog(
      HANDLE hEventLog,                // handle to event log
      DWORD dwReadFlags,               // how to read log
      DWORD dwRecordOffset,            // offset of first record
      LPVOID lpBuffer,                 // buffer for read data
      DWORD nNumberOfBytesToRead,      // bytes to read
      DWORD *pnBytesRead,              // number of bytes read
      DWORD *pnMinNumberOfBytesNeeded  // bytes required
    );
    

    Parameters

    hEventLog
    [in] Handle to read the event log. This handle is returned by the OpenEventLog function.
    dwReadFlags
    [in] Specifies how the read operation is to move forward. This parameter must include one of the following values.

    Value Meaning
    EVENTLOG_SEEK_READ The read operation derives from the record specified by the dwRecordOffset parameter.

    This flag cannot be used with EVENTLOG_SEQUENTIAL_READ.

    EVENTLOG_SEQUENTIAL_READ The read operation is in order since the last call to the function ReadEventLog using this handle.

    This flag cannot be used with the EVENTLOG_SEEK_READ.

    If the buffer is large enough, more than one record can be read at the specified seek position. You must specify one of the following flags to indicate the direction for successive read operations.

    Value Meaning
    EVENTLOG_FORWARDS_READ The journal is read in chronological order.

    This flag cannot be used with EVENTLOG_BACKWARDS_READ.

    EVENTLOG_BACKWARDS_READ The journal is read in reverse chronological order.

    This flag cannot be used with EVENTLOG_FORWARDS_READ.

    dwRecordOffset
    [in] Specifies the registration number - the journal entry in which to begin the read operation. This parameter is ignored unless dwReadFlags includes the EVENTLOG_SEEK_READ flag.
    lpBuffer
    [out] Pointer to a buffer for the reading of the event log data. This parameter cannot be NULL, even if the nNumberOfBytesToRead parameter is null.

    The buffer will be filled with an EVENTLOGRECORD structure.

    nNumberOfBytesToRead
    [in] Specifies the size, in bytes, of the buffer. This function will read as whole submissions contained in the buffer. the function does not return the partial entries, even if there is room in the buffer.
    pnBytesRead
    [out] Pointer to a variable that receives the number of bytes read by the function.
    pnMinNumberOfBytesNeeded
    [out] Pointer to a variable that receives the number of bytes required for the following journal entry. This count is not valid unless ReadEventLog returns zero, and GetLastError returns ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER.

    Return values

    If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.

    If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

    Remarks

    When this function returns successfully, the playback in the error log position is adjusted by the number of records to read. Only a number of set of event log records will return.

    Note  Configured for this source file name can also be the file name configured for other sources (several sources may exist under subkeys under one log file). Therefore, this function can return events that have been recorded by several sources.

    Requirements

    Windows NT/2000: Requires Windows NT 3.1 or later version.
    Windows 95/98: Not supported.
    Windows CE: Not supported.
    Header: Declared in winbase.h; include windows.h.
    Library: Use advapi32.lib.
    Unicode: Implementation of both Unicode and ANSI under Windows NT/2000.

  • Event Veiwer ERROR

    Under XP Pro.  I tried to get rid of this for some time.  Don't ask why I didn't contact Microsoft (would have been too easy, I guess).  I found a registry fix that was supposed to work, but is not the case.  He had to do an update from Microsft and Java help file (all well above my payscale) who messed things up a bit.  I've been to as many sites and read as many articles, I do not remember much today.  This problem first appeared in maybe 96 according to some of the things that I read (people like you, who fix the things).  I really thought I got it... HA!  Then I fell asleep.  The fix was:

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\HTMLHelp\1.x\HHRestrictions] "OverrideLMZLinHHContainer" = dword: 00000001 "

    I was happy just stalled after that I added this, but, no, the error doesn't either suffocating.  This was my first experience of regedit, I'm not at all farmiliar with it.  I think hunting down LMZ in HHcontainer so that I can make sence out of control (override) that is supposed to do something for something to replace the help file.  I got nothing.

    Any help, ideas, even the worst ones, will be appreciated.  I created more problems to change things here and there to get rid of this problem, it's crazy.  It's fun, however, and I do not have this error (I don't think) but.

    Thank you and good day.

    Good and if you have a question to start a new thread and remember, whenever you make a change, ALWAYS do a restore point first!

    AND don't do much change at once, maybe one or two only then reboot.

  • T410 2516CTO random freezes without anything in the Windows Event Viewer. :(

    The machine crashes without warning and did with the two installation (more common) factory and with the deleted HARD disk and using Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 from Microsoft x 64 slipstreamed (freezes much less often). Are there tools that I can use to help diagnose this problem?

    I also used an adapter 90W AC and 65W adapter on this machine. The random freezes occur on each adapter as well.

    I read other people who have the same frustrations on to freeze, but no other situation is exactly the same as mine unfortunately - most other occasions you can find something in the Windows Event Viewer!

  • Received a call from someone claiming to be from Microsoft - error in MS Windows event viewer and warnings

    I just got a phone call from someone claiming to be from Microsoft.  He directed me to go to MS Windows event viewer and County errors and warnings in the Applications and the system section.  Then he asked me to let them access my computer and fix any problems that would be 'crash' of my computer.  When I refused him access said he couldn't help me and hung up.  I do not think that it was Microsoft but are ratings warning and error a problem?  I use Windows XP.

    Kudos to you 1Grizzly, you have made the right choice. Microsoft does not make unsolicited support calls or send emails to customers, offering support.

  • Stop "Windows event log" stops Browser Hijack

    Hi, I'm under Windows 7 SP1 and IE 11.

    Whenever I have start my PC, go on the Internet and launch IE, the first page which is to www.globalsearch.com. I tried almost all the options, reset IE, remove IE and add IE return, remove using all kinds of software malware/antivirus/scanners... u name it... It is detected as a browser ONLY on Internet Explorer browser hijacking. Can I get cleaned up in the registry, etc., removed to quarantine... but then the next time I start my PC the browser hijacking appears again during the launch of IE.

    The ONLY thing so far that was able to prevent browser hijacking is STOPPED "to the Windows event log. Managed to get it solved this way after troubleshooting for 2 weeks.

    My question is whether or not it is safe to STOP permanently Windows event log in order for me to not have this Browser Hijack on IE happen? If not, is there anyway I can 'REFRESH' to the Windows event log?

    Thank you very much.

    Thank you.

    I managed to remove it by understanding how Windows and other services event viewer which depended on. The culprit was inside the Task Scheduler. (Once you clear the Windows Event Viewer... Task Scheduler stops as well... so no browser don't hijack).

    Inside of the Task Scheduler, so I had to check the task that has been loaded at startup and I managed to find the culprit. I've removed from the Task Scheduler, then proceeds to the go to the directory of the EXE, it was loading and removed manually in safe MODE.

    Who did the lap :)

    Thanks for the reply Ramesh. Very much appreciated.

  • Windows connection problems and "Windows could not log in the Windows Event Service.

    September 14, 2014, I installed the hotfix for Windows (KB2590550).

    When I try to log on to a standard user account (not Admin), I would get an error that might say something like "Windows could not connect to the Windows Service Service event".  I click OK and then get a totally blank screen showing on the arrow of the mouse (which can be moved).

    Around this same time, when I was able to connect, I got a "not genuine Windows" pop up.  My windows 7 came factory-installed by Dell (Dec. 2011) and I got no re-imaging, re - install or repair since I got the computer.  I've also been running Symantec Endpoint Protection (version DoD) for 2011 as well.

    When I login as administrator (different account), I get an error "Failed to connect to the Windows Event Service" or something like it in a control bar bubble popup.

    I studied the Knowledge Base, and he said to apply the patch to KB2590550.

    Since then, the question is still common and works (sometimes) when I reset the password for the standard user.  In addition, all updates of the operating system, patches, etc. have failed since then.

    Now, I get occasional blue screens immediately as windows starts to load (just after the initial windows graphics) which triggers a reboot.

    Service Pack 1 is installed.

    Help, please!

    Hello

    Thank you for the update on the issue.

    If the problem still persists I suggest to run the SFC scan to check the integrity of the system and see what it finds.

     

    The sfc/scannow (System File Checker) command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.

    We can check & repair missing and corrupt files by the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base.

    1. Go to Start, click all programs and open the Accessories.
    2. Right-click on command prompt in the list programs, and then select run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click OK.
    3. In the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:

    sfc/scannow


    For more information, refer to this link:

    Get back to us with the result of the analysis so that we can offer you additional troubleshooting steps.

  • Error 16 recording Acrobat Reader DC for Windows event

    Hello

    I uninstalled Acrobat Reader XI.0.10 today (which had no eventlog errors at all for my Win 7 x 64, nicely updated Office Update), and made a clean install of the new Acrobat Reader DC Dutch.

    The drive works perfectly, but whenever I start the application, it creates a 16 red error in the windows event logger. The only information of the event contains readings that "Acrobat reader tries to reach a component that is not installed or damaged on my computer. Try to re - install it... »

    I did, but the 16 error keeps coming back on... I completely uninstalled CD player and reinstalled the old Acrobat Reader XI.0.10 once again, and all 16 errors are gone, so there must be a bug in the new drive DC-application/install.

    Anyone have the same problem or a solution?

    Thanks, Rik (Belgium)

    This problem should now be resolved in the quarterly July 2015.
