About this tag
The application log in Windows Event Viewer records events from software applications, including errors, warnings, and informational messages. Users often check the application log to troubleshoot issues such as backup failures (e.g., error 0x8078006B during system image creation) or SideBySide errors (Event ID 35) when starting programs like Skype for Business. However, the application log does not automatically log every program start; for example, launching Notepad or Chrome typically does not generate an entry. To monitor program launches, additional configuration or third-party tools may be needed. The application log is a key resource for diagnosing application-related problems in Windows.
