Windows 10 Event Error Log - Summary Section

One of the Logs listed needs to be deleted since this application has been removed from my laptop. Is there anyway to remove it from the Log -Summary Section?

 

NTFS Compression on Event Logs

Anyone ever try doing NTFS compression on their Error Logs?
It's all text, so it should compress pretty well.






Anyone else try this? I suppose it's only useful in server-land when you have huge event logs..

To compress:
Run services.msc
Find Event Log and set to "Disabled"
Reboot
Go to c:\windows\system32\config
NTFS Compress anything that ends in .evt
Run services.msc
Find Event Log and set to "Automatic"
Reboot
