Event ID 16384 is a Software Protection Platform (SPP) log entry that indicates the Windows Software Protection service has been successfully scheduled for a restart. This event is often seen alongside Event ID 16394 and may occur during normal system operations. In some cases, users have reported that this event coincides with network disconnections in online games, such as Elder Scrolls Online, after upgrading to Windows 11. While the event itself is typically benign, its timing with game disconnects suggests it could be a factor in connectivity issues. Troubleshooting steps may involve checking for software protection conflicts or adjusting system settings to prevent interference with network activity.
