    Hello anonymous user ,

    Enable all audit settings on all site collections using PowerShell.

    Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue  
    [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSecurity]::RunWithElevatedPrivileges(  
    {  
       $sites = Get-SPSite -Limit All  
       foreach($site in $sites)  
       {  
           $site.Audit.AuditFlags = $site.Audit.AuditFlags = [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPAuditMaskType]::CheckOut `  
    -bxor [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPAuditMaskType]::CheckIn `  
    -bxor [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPAuditMaskType]::View `  
    -bxor [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPAuditMaskType]::Delete `  
    -bxor [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPAuditMaskType]::Update `  
    -bxor [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPAuditMaskType]::ProfileChange `  
    -bxor [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPAuditMaskType]::ChildDelete `  
    -bxor [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPAuditMaskType]::SchemaChange `  
    -bxor [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPAuditMaskType]::SecurityChange `

    -bxor [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPAuditMaskType]::Move `  
    -bxor [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPAuditMaskType]::Search  
           $site.Audit.Update()
