Windows 10: Special Logon

I think someone is snooping my computer. In the security event log, there is a 'special Logon' entry. Is there any way this log entry is generated by the system, or can this only be a person?

My security event logger has now been changed so that the log is cleared when i reboot and log back in a normal user.

Is this the snooper covering their tracks?

thx.

Try some of the following suggestions to help
