Elwiz is an Eventlog viewer. There comes already Eventvwr.exe with Windows, so why should anybody use Elwiz? Elwiz can do nearly all what Eventviewer can do. Using Elwiz is much more convenient than using Eventviewer. There is no need to double-click an event to see all its details; you get them by default. 

What can you do with Elwiz? 

• You can sort the log you are viewing by Source, Category, Event-ID, Computer or Account. 
• You can filter it in different ways, too. 
• You can save an active log into file(s) while clearing it. 
• You can save the open log into a csv file. If the open log is viewed through a filter, only the filtered log entries will be written to the file. No need to bother with file names, Elwiz always will suggest a filename that does not exist yet. 
• And Elwiz is more. It is an Event Watcher, too. You can tell it which machines it should watch. Events that occur on watched machines can create alerts or start commands. Probably you don't want this for every event, so you can exactly filter the alerts regarding Event category, Event ID, User ID, Machine name and even strings in the event description.  Especially useful are Time Windows in the Filter rules, which cause multiple events to create only a single alert. Elwiz knows 5 different types of Filter rules, which determine how often matching events will cause alerts or run commands:
  • Never (ignore always)
  • Always
  • Only once at the beginning of a Time Window
  • Only once at the end of a Time Window (advantage: You get the number of matching events)
  • Only once within a Time Window, if a defined threshold is reached
• Execute Filter Rules allow to start an action (for instance sending an email or running external programs) when critical events occur in the network.
• And Elwiz is yet more. You can see who is logged on (locally as well as remotely) at every of the watched machines. For every user you can see available details like the number of successful or failed logons, how old the password is and so on. 
• Elwiz tells you the uptime and eventlog settings of the watched machines. You can change all the eventlog settings including the CrashOnAuditFail registry key. 
• You can take a snapshot to see how much of your disk, pagefile and registry space is free. A nice graphics will show all these infos at a glance. You can print it out, if you want. 
• A graphics will show the connection status history of all watched machines during the last days.

To run Elwiz successfully, you need to be logged on with an account that does have the necessary rights at every machine where you want to watch or view event logs.

Registered users of Elwiz can request a free copy of the tool EventRepair, which trys (mostly successfully ;) to repair damaged eventlog files.
