At the top of this article the recommendation says:
I do NOT recommend this workaround:
delete/rename the registry keys HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WINEVT\Channels\xxx
Sorry for being such a stickler for details here, but are you recommending I delete everything in that registry folder or are you suggesting I delete a single item called "xxx" because I do not see an object called xxx, but there must be maybe 400 folders in there. Maybe even more than that.
Are you suggesting I wipe out the entire ** HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WINEVT\Channels\ ** section? or perhaps rename it to channels-old
Do I understand you correctly?
