    Hi Arthur

    Windows is constantly generating errors and events in the background, Windows is designed to recover from these without the user even knowing this happened, that is the way Windows is designed.

    DCOM Event ID 10016 are the most common of these and they do not mean anything is wrong with your device, and there is nothing you can do to stop these events being generated

    Honestly don't spend too much time in the Event Viewer, you will be convinced there is something wrong with your PC, when there isn't. As long as your system is stable and not crashing or lagging, forget about the Event viewer . ..
