Event Viewer (eventvwr.msc) is a Windows administrative utility for monitoring system health and troubleshooting problems with applications, OS, and hardware. Event Viewer allows for browsing and managing event logs. The most common logs available in Event Viewer include Application, System, and Security logs. Depending on the severity of the event, Application and System logs display events that fall into three categories: Information, Warning, and Error. Information events denote normal operation of the system (such as starting and stopping of system services, or successful completion of some routine background tasks), warning events point to non-critical errors (for example when installation of a software component fails because the component is already on the system), error events point to serious issues, for example when programs stop responding and need to be closed by Windows. Security-related events are called audits and inform only about success or failure of an event.
