Windows 10: Event ID 1074: The process Explorer.EXE has initiated the shutdown...

Anybody out there can tell me what this is supposed to mean ?

Noticed that after Windows is fully running, the monitor switches off and after a few seconds on again.

Below entry is about 25 minutes after booting the pc and Windows running idle.

App with no name preventing shutdown.

I've been researching the problem using the "Event Viewer" and found in my case the first time the bad event #1073 occurred was after KB4041994 & KB4048951 updated my Win 10 System. I haven't researched these KBs since it's late. A good shutdown event ID
is #1074. Searching these Event IDs in the Event log will show all occurrences of both which with scrolling from the last good #1074 shutdown will lead one to the updates before the start of #1073s. I plan to follow up on the KBs tomorrow. Maybe Microsoft
could look at these KBs.

I'm using a Lenovo Yoga2 Pro.

Hi Justin,



The error code you are receiving is regarding the shutdown type (power off).

You can refer to the link below for reference:

Event ID 1074 - Random and unsolicited system shutdown.

Thanks.
