Event Viewer Logs Tells You Your Windows Problems

Author: The Event Viewer? What’s that?
These are the questions I received often and to tell you frankly, it took me about 10 minutes at least to educate my friends on what is event viewer, why it is useful and when you wanted to know what happen to your laptop or PC.
The event viewer is the least used and most under-rated tool (and I mean that) by fellow Windows users. The event viewer is simply a log which notes any instance of the operating system.
Let me explain in a much easier term.
I give an example :- When an application (let’s say Windows Explorer crashes), this instance will be logged to the event viewer.

The screenshot above shows there’s an error with the NetLogon and an error indication will be further explained once you double click on that error information.
