event viewer

my teenager son learned some tricks to log into Windows 10 without any password. He used the trick and installed and played games on my PC while I was at work. I can see the login in event viewer. How can I secure my PC so he can't break in and mess up my system? Thanks,

Hi guys, I have Dell Precision M4800. Before having Windows 10 Pro x64 installed I had Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and Windows 8.1 Enterprise x64 and all that time I didn't have any BSODs. However, since I use Windows 10 Pro x64 I periodically have BSOD. Below is the error in Event Viewer. The...

On Windows desktops, if something went wrong, your first instinct for years may have been to open up the Event Viewer and see if anything red or yellow shows up. Those alerts are saved ETW events, emitted by the system when errors occurred. On other Windows devices though, it’s been a bit harder...

Hi! Does anyone here use this windows tool to troubleshoot. I think it's a great tool. Not wonderful, but it might help lead you to problems you may be having. I don't understand why more help forums don't at least call attention to it. To me it's the event viewer in a graft form, and a lot...

My computer randomly crashses while I play games, not all games though, so far I know that it occurs in Smite and Marvel Heroes 2016. I do not know what causes it, and I look in event viewer but never find anything that looks like it would cause a crash. I do not think that it is graphics...
