Event logs are special files that record significant events on your PC, such as when a user signs in to the PC or when a app encounters an error. Whenever these types of events occur, Windows records the event in an event log that you can read by using Event Viewer.
Windows 11 is known for acting up now and again with several types of errors. Now, you may want to get a deeper understanding of the errors, and that’s where the Event Log comes into play. Event Log files basically store all information regarding past errors for your viewing pleasure, and that’s great. The problem is, the Event Log at times doesn’t automatically remove all the information it stores, and that can be a problem for your computer’s performance.
The Event Viewer in Windows details events that happened with your computer and that information is saved as Event Logs that you can view or clear anytime. Here's how.
Advanced users might find the details in event logs helpful when troubleshooting problems with Windows and other apps. However, you may also wish to be able to quickly clear all event logs at once as needed.
This tutorial will apply for computers, laptops, desktops, and tablets running the Windows 11 operating system (Home, Professional, Enterprise, Education) from all supported hardware manufactures, like Dell, HP, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo, and Samsung.
