Suggestion: Clean Vista event logs


Dr. Strangelove

Recommended Posts

Is it possible to have an option in CCleaner to clean the event logs in Vista (and Windows 7 when released)? In addition to the standard logs, there are many, many logs under the "Applications and Services Logs". With Vista lacking the ability to clean them all at once, this would be a great feature.

I find the event viewer a great source of information as to what is going on in my system, and especially if I am troubleshooting.

 

I would not want ccleaner to delete them for me and just do it myself once in a while.

 

But that is just me :)

I like Event Log Explorer?

Event Log Explorer? is an effective software solution for viewing, monitoring and analyzing events recorded in Security, System, Application and another logs of Microsoft Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 operating systems. Event Log Explorer greatly extends standard Windows Event Viewer monitoring functionality and brings many new features.

It works on Vista.

I don't think it would hurt to have an option but like hazel, this would probably stay unchecked for me!

There's always an exception to the rule. I'm that exception.
