Hello,

Thanks a lot for your excellent plugin, i have a little issue concerning write events in the event viewer, indeed when i write an event to my pc, there is no way to customize th message here is an extract :

"Description of the id event ( 1 ) in the source (xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) is not available [...] : Here is my custom message, it works, but not only my message."

I need to display my message only. How can i do that ?

Best regards Niko

You have to create a resource DLL, put your message in the resources of the dll and then register the dll with the application event log of your machine.
I think you should review microsoft documentation about this.
I have some examples (of dll installation too), I could add them to the plugin homepage if there is interest about that...
