Question

Batch Code to trigger bat file whenever there is an error in Eventvwr log error

Answer 1

Hello,
You can create a windows service which can look into EventVwr and update you accordingly
Sample code:
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace EventViewer
    class Program
        static void Main(string[] args)
            //logType can be Application, Security, System or any other Custom Log.
            string logType = "Application";
            EventLog ev = new EventLog(logType, System.Environment.MachineName);
            int LastLogToShow = ev.Entries.Count;
            if (LastLogToShow <= 0)
                Console.WriteLine("No Event Logs in the Log :" + logType);
            // Read the last 2 records in the specified log.
            int i;
            for (i = ev.Entries.Count - 1; i >= LastLogToShow - 10; i--)
                EventLogEntry CurrentEntry = ev.Entries[i];
                Console.WriteLine("Event ID : " + CurrentEntry.EventID);
                Console.WriteLine("Entry Type : " + CurrentEntry.EntryType.ToString());
                Console.WriteLine("Message :  " + CurrentEntry.Message + "\n");
                Console.ReadKey();
            ev.Close();
