    New PC shows lots of odd activity when it was powered down shutdown, besides what's mentioned in the title. Including numerous "Offline downlevel migration succeeded." And countless activity that looks suspicious, let alone that fact that it's happening when the PC should be turned off entirely.I know the event viewer has endless odd entries that are normal, but what is all this "migration" and logon activity that occurs sometimes 20 or 30 times a minute, and even when the PC should be doing nothing?I recently discovered I had unknown trojan infections in my old PC, and now

    Hi,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    1. Are you on a domain network?
    2. May I know the make and the model number of your system?

    The event logs you have provided seems to be the security logs that is generated when you login to your system. For more information on the event that was generated, you can check
    4672(S): Special privileges assigned to new logon.

    The Windows error logs will be located at Event Viewer > Windows Logs > System.

    Please follow the step below and check if it works for you.

    Step: Improve Windows 10 Performance.

    Try some of the following suggestions to help
    make your Windows 10 PC run better
    . The steps are listed in order, so start with the first one, see if that fixes the problem, and then continue to the next one if it doesn’t.

    Note: The last step on the article contains Windows Reset, I suggest you not to perform Windows reset, as there is a change your data and applications will be wiped and also
    the OS will reverted back to previous version you upgraded from.
