    I have a lot of events in "Event Viewer -> Windows Logs -> Security", thousands per minute....


    As the titles states I have a lot of Events in Event Viewer, specifically in Windows Logs -> Security. Most of them have the codes 5156 or 5158 and are done by svchost.exe, searchapp.exe, msedge.exe and avp.exe. Should I do something about them or how can I decrease them? It worries me considering that from what I saw online most users have way fewer."

    thousands of security logs in event viewer

    My Windows has been working normally since I clean installed 20H2.
    Nine hours ago, there were 26,469 events as shown in my post #2 above.
    At this moment, there are 26,390 events as shown in my screenshot below.

    I have not deleted anything manually in the past nine hours, so I believe Even Viewer has automatically deleted some old events. That is normal.
    ——————————————————————————————————————
    After minutes, at this moment, there are 26,394 events, and the size is only 20.00 MB, which I won't care about.

    thousands of security logs in event viewer

    it's weird, the CMD command doesn't show the security log number, it only shows the word "Security" but it's blank. The power shell however does show. And since I wrote the post, I got 1000+ more, and Event Viewer even added Exclamation mark next to the number. It shows: 13110(!) New events available

    EventID are mostly 5379 and 4798.

    Powershell output:
    Code:
    - - - Updated - - -

    Oh so I guess it's something normal?
