Windows has a built-in module called Event Viewer. It stores additional information that will help a user diagnose a problem with their Windows platform or any application installed on top of Windows.
The list of possible errors is on page 2. The event viewer will capture 7 types of error logs. Instead of listing all errors, a user may want to filter by only Critical or Error categories to narrow the search. The following steps will filter errors to make it easier to find errors/issues.
In the example below I chose to Filter the current log, then I filtered by Event level and finally, I filtered by Event Source, I chose to filter by Sedona Service. This will narrow the search to the critical and error messages for Sedona Office only.
