How do you change the Event Viewer archive location in Server 2008 R2?

We're wanting to redirect the security and system event viewer logs to the D:\ on a Server 2008 R2 box
We've got the current logs to save there, however all archived system/security logs are still being saved on the c:\ in their default location in %windir%\system32... and killing the OS partition.
I can write something up in PoSh and schedule it, but I'd rather use any built-in capabilities first...
I've taken a peek in the HKLM\Services\CurrentControlSet... hive where the event viewer behavior is configured and do not see an option to set a path for the archive location...

Unfortunately, you cannot customize the location of archived event logs in Windows. The logs will always be archived to %windir%\system32\Winevt\Logs\Archive-xxxxxx
There'd be some scripts can help you automatically archived logs to another location. You can find them here: http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/site/search?f%5B0%5D.Type=RootCategory&f%5B0%5D.Value=security

    You put a shortcut to the desired location in that location. You are then only 1 click away.

  • How do you change the default Save As location for PDF files?

    I have not been able to find a straight answer anywhere.  I am scanning documents to my email then I need to save them.  Instead of saving them to the last folder I saved a file in, (which would be logical) it saves them in a temporary files folder EVERY time.  I have seen answers about how to change the folder when saving documents from a web browser but that is not what I am doing.  Someone please help!  I have thousands of files to save and this is incredibly frustrating. Agh!!!

    Is it your scanning software that does that, or Adobe Reader?
    Anyway, I don't know how to change the default change destination for either of it.
    I have had a similar problem with an entirely different software, so what I did is create a shortcut to the destination folder in my Temp folder, so a simple double-click when saving gets met quickly to that target folder.

  • How do you change the pink highlight for the present day in calendar when in week view

    How do you change the pink highlight for the present day in calendar when in week view - OSX Maverick

    the current day was light blue in ical in 10.6 but with plenty of contrast, but I recently made the bigger leap all the way to calendar in 10.9. the choice of color is terrible for reasons such as Spile1962 puts below, but also not having any way to tweak it is terrible. I'm on a bran d new imac and can barely see a difference and frankly, while I appreciate the subtlety, I still forget to look for the darker bar across the top of the current week and day. we should be able to adjust weekend and current day bg colors.
    I went into the app's package contents in hopes that they were using a tiff/png file that I could tweak on my own but couldn't find anything for them. all the icons are there, as are the bg sets for all the little pop-ups and things, but I couldn't even find a reference to a hex color in the plist file.
    send apple feedback. I just did myself, except that Calendar hasn't made the list (yet?), only iCal up to version 4.x, and Messages is still only iChat for feedback, and some others are old as well. apparently after steve died, apple's attention to these details just died with him. it's been that long since those other apps should have been relevant on their site.

  • How do you change the color of events on ICal.

    How do you changed the color of events on ICal? I was able to do this when I utilized ICal on the Snow Leopard system but can no longer do this with Lion.
    I know that I can select the Calanders list, but when I create a new "Calander" it doesn't allow me to choose a color and it doesn't show up in my list when working within an event.
    Thanks!

    Phoebe,
    Right-click on the new calendar and select "Get Info."
    Make sure that the ✓ mark is selected.
    Then choose the color from this pane:

  • Changing the Event View Field Display Order on a Calendar

    We'd like to change the display of a calendar event to show the Title on top and the time below. This is how it currently looks below. Is there a way to change it?
    Orange County District Attorney

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to change the Event View Field display order on a Calendar.
    You need to insert the code below into a Content Editor Web Part.
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function changeCalendarOrder() {
    $(".ms-acal-sdiv").each(function () {
    var arr = $(this).find('div').toArray();
    var temp;
    temp = arr[0];
    arr[0] = arr[2];
    arr[2] = temp;
    $(this).html(arr);
    //alert($(this).html());
    _spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push('calendarEventLinkIntercept');
    // hook into the existing SharePoint calendar load function
    function calendarEventLinkIntercept() {
    var OldCalendarNotify4a = SP.UI.ApplicationPages.CalendarNotify.$4b;
    SP.UI.ApplicationPages.CalendarNotify.$4b = function () {
    OldCalendarNotify4a();
    changeCalendarOrder();
    </script>
    The result is as below:
    Thanks,

  • How do i change the artist view in itunes 11 back to the original view?

    How do i change the artist view in itunes 11 back to the original or pre itunes 11 view?

    You can't. iTunes 11 has different ways of viewing your library from earlier builds. You can restore some of the look/function of the old version by turning on the menu bar (ctrl-b), sidebar (ctrl-s) and also clicking the magnifying glass then unticking Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour.
    If that isn't enough the see this post on how to roll back to iTunes 10.7.

  • How do you change the size of pictures?

    Hello,
    I'm a new Mac user. How do you change the size of pictures in iPhoto? Sometimes when sending e-mails, the picture files are extremely large and take a long time to load... Is there any way you can make the picture or file smaller? Like on a PC, you can open the photo in the Paint program and just reduce the size... Is there anything like this for the Mac?
    Thanks!

    Assuming that you're accessing your email package from INSIDE iPhoto, you're given a choice of picture sizes. Personally, I've found "medium" to be a good compromise but you might prefer "small" (iPhoto will tell you the file size).
    If you don't know what I'm talking about, first go iPhoto Preferences > General and select your email client. Then, go to the View menu and select Show in Toolbar > Email.

    So far there is apparently no solution, other than upgrading. (It does seem that upgrading your Reader will at least let you view the PDFs normally, even if editing them in 9 is still annoying.)

  • How do you change the shortcut keys for Firefox in Welsh For Mac?

    I'm using Firefox in Welsh on Mac (asking in English to hopefully get more answers), and every time I try to do the shortcut for copy (cmd+C), it hides the window (since Hide in Welsh is Cuddio, the shorcut for that is now Cmd+C). I usually forget this, and proceed with using the shortcut for copy only to anger myself when I realise that I've hidden the window.
    My question is, how do you change the shortcut keys on Firefox so then I can change the Hide shortcut and give Copy the cmd+C shortcut? I'm also using OpenOffice.org in Welsh, and they are using cmd+C for copy and cmd+H for Hide.
    Is there any way that I could do this myself? Its rather annoying for me, and its rather weird to use Cmd+X for Cutting text instead of copying.
    Thanks.

    This could be worth a bug. It shouldn't happen that some shortcut keys get (re)used for other actions and Cmd + C should be considered as one of them.
    You can try to make the change in this file: cy.jar/locale/browser/baseMenuOverlay.dtd
    <pre><nowiki><!ENTITY hideThisAppCmdMac.label "Cuddio &brandShortName;">
    <!ENTITY hideThisAppCmdMac.commandkey "C"></nowiki></pre>
    English language pack: en-GB.jar/locale/browser/baseMenuOverlay.dtd
    <pre><nowiki><!ENTITY hideThisAppCmdMac.label "Hide &brandShortName;">
    <!ENTITY hideThisAppCmdMac.commandkey "H"></nowiki></pre>
    You can find the file cy.jar in the chrome folder in the Firefox application folder.<br />
    The file cy.jar is a ZIP archive, so you need a program that can open such an archive and edit the file baseMenuOverlay.dtd.
    I'm not on a Mac, so can't do any testing in this matter. I just downloaded the Welsh (cy.xpi) language pack for Mac and had a look in it.

    How do you change the text in portrait mode.  I can edit it in landscape, but when I change the view the Latin and photos can't be edited and swapped with my material.  Thanks

    iBA should be approached like this:
    layout in landscape
    edit in portrait
    - -  check in both on your device
    Use the 'disable portrait orientation' option (Inspector/Document) for layouts you just don't see working in any manner but landscape.
