How to decipher and understand windows event logs

Dear community,

I need some assistance on how to decipher and understand when I was active on my w11 desktop pc.

I have tried to analyse the logs on my own, also by using tools provided by nirsoft, to no avail.

the idea to check around on fiverr also came into my mind, but I am not sure whether I will put myself or my private data at risk by sharing the event logs to people online.

Ive tried to reach out to Microsoft too, but it is hard to get in touch with the correct person/department and I feel like a ping pong ball when reaching out to them.

the result will be used in a court case, where I am trying to defend myself.

any tips or ideas will be much appreciated.

thank you Igor,

I just want to clarify that I was not active at the pc at the given time, I see some wake up, sleep etc. events, but my limited knowledge with computers and understanding why xx event happened or mean is confusing.

Hi,

My name is Igor, it's a pleasure for me to help others and I'll try to help you.

Event logs do not contain any personal information, so do not worry about this.

The logs do not keep information about your activities by default, but register sign ins and sign outs.

What exactly activity do you want to see?
