Windows 10: Event Viewer says my PC with newly-reinstalled Windows 10 turned on at 6 A.M, despite me...

I recently checked my Event Viewer and found that Windows 10 had booted up at 6 A.M. I didn't check what happened at that time, and unfortunately I have lost access to that log, as I reinstalled Windows afterwards. I had done all the updates so nothing should have been scheduled. Do I have a BIOS-level virus or is this something windows sometimes does. I should also mention that the fast startup option was disabled, and the PC was plugged in.

Event Viewer queries on my Windows 10 laptop


I would suggest the obvious- focus on the most frequently occurring hardware-related report, and try to get further information on that. Work with the report detail.

Run stress tests on your PC as per suggestions above.

If you wanted some sort of reference, you could, say, swap out your disk and install Windows alone, see what event viewer says then.

You might prefer this view of the event log using freeware: note no hardware related reports there.

 

Windows 10 Event Viewer Log

Hi Debi,

As per the information, I would like to inform that the errors registered under Event Viewer may not always mean that your PC is non responsive or dysfunctional. If you have experience any crash, freeze or dysfunctionality, you can refer to the error registered
in Event Viewer for assistance.

I suggest that you send us the screenshot of the event viewer window so that we can introspect better.

Hope this helps

Regards
