    Is there a batch file to clear Event Viewer?


    I have one for Windows 7 and I was wondering if there was one out to clear the Event Viewer in Win 10 Home x64?
    OS Version10.0.18363.836 (Win10 19H2 [1909] November 2019 Update)

    I've just gotten Win 10 to behave as I like, but all the tweaking and restoring from backups, etc., has literally filled Event Viewer. I'd like to find a batch file that will empty it, so I have a clue as to what's going on, from this point forward.

    Thx in advance.




    /e Well it seems there is. Thx tenforums

    Clear All Event Logs in Event Viewer in Windows  


    FWIW CCleaner will clear the Event Viewer Logs - just check the box under Windows>Advanced>Windows Events Logs. run CCleaner and it's that simple. Much faster than most ,bat files I've tried. Just a suggestion.
