Security Event Log flooded with 4656 Events

We are having issues with our Security event log within Event Viewer. It is my understanding when you perform Object Access auditing and enable it within Group Policy, you still need to enable auditing on the Objects (to be audited) themselves. We just enabled
Object Access auditing and are already seeing Handle Manipulation events (i.e. event id 4656) flooding our Security log even though we have not configured auditing at the file level for ANY of the files in question.
A lot of forums mention disabling Audit File System and Audit Handle Manipulation events to ensure the 4656 events do not flood the Security log; however, we want to be able to see these events for the files that we configure auditing for (at the
file level), but not for any other files which were not configured for auditing at the file level.
We do not have Global Object Access Auditing configured.

 

DistributedCOM Errors Flooding Event Log

Worked here as well!!! No 'Error' at system level reported from Event handler regarding my re-start after following the fix as described. Perfect!

Time will tell if this fix really helped me with my 'original' problem? As said above my computer started to perform re-starts randomly (frerquence 1 per 1 or 2 days) after one of the big Win10 updates i december. Finding the 'Error' in the Event log, that
now i sfixed, was just one step. If I get no further re-starts this week it's a success! Otherwise I back where I started...

 

Windows 10 Pro Application Log flooded with Event ID 10 WMI errors

Okay I seem to have figured out what was causing my issue.

I went into services and found the WMI service and clicked for a restart. (Not to restart)

Once I did that it popped up all the applications that were dependent on WMI service.

I took note of what applications were listed and cancelled the restart.

From the list I noticed a few that I wouldn't be able to stop or remove. I did however notice a couple programs from Dell that could be stopped/removed safely.

The two programs I was going to focus on first were:

Dell SupportAssistant

Dell SupportAssistant Agent

I started with Dell SupportAssistant Agent and removed it from add and remove programs. (Left the other one in place)

Once removed, I monitored the event viewer and the application log and found my WMI errors that were flooding my logs had stopped.

Issue resolved
