Windows 10: How to Stop constant "Audit Failure" events, am I at risk?

Good day Microsoft Community, In my years as a Windows user, I had never experienced anything like what I'm about to describe. Apologies if this is a bit lengthyI believe the problem is Remote Desktop Connection, but I use it to access my PC on the go, for various purposes, but please hear me out, since this has never happened before while using RDC.After returning home from work, I needed to use my PC and realized that my screen was showing the lock screen. When I clicked on my username, it prompted me for my password. which it was a little strange since my PC is set not to ask for a passwo

Security Audit Failure Event 5061 In Windows 10

Hello,

A failure audit event is triggered when a defined action, such as a user logon, is not completed successfully.

The appearance of failure audit events in the event log does not necessarily mean that something is wrong with your system. For example, if you configure Audit Logon events, a failure event may simply mean that a user mistyped his or her password.

Audit failures every reboot - Event 5061 - Cryptographic operation.

Before I upgrade my 10 to the Spring version, I did some more digging.

I looked at the sequence of Audit Successes before and after each Audit Failure - maybe they're related? Maybe the steps mean something? In the link below, I have pasted the "General" subwindows for the Event Viewer events closely preceding, including and following each of the two Audit Failures in my most recent bootup.

There seems to be some kind of pattern of the machine looking at the key, DELETING it, then looking for it again, then throwing the AUDIT FAILURE - maybe because it just deleted the key and the key isn't there any more - and then re-creating the key. Is the AUDIT FAILURE just the good result of a test that the key was successfully deleted?

But WHY is the machine doing this? Why delete and recreate? What's really going on?

Here's the link to the Word Online document in which I've pasted both Event Viewer sequences:

Any thoughts? (And am I interpreting the events correctly anyway?)

 

Unexpected Audit Failure in Event Viewer

I did make some progress in that I can disable the Audit Failure from being logged with the Event Viewer.

Go to Command Promp (Admin) and enter:

auditpol /set /subcategory:”Filtering Platform Connection” /success:disable /failure:disable

Caveat: Someone posted that the Audit Failure will likely return the next day.

Plus this is tantamount to replacing a fuse without fixing the underlying problem which is causing the fuse to blow.

Still hoping an Event Viewer / "Filtering Platform Connection" guru will chime in.
