Event log service is unavailable

[Susa804]

My os is Vista and I am logged on as administrator. Went to access Diskeeper
to manually defragment and recieved a message that said "Diskeeper failed to
connect to the service. The service may have stopped. See the Windows Event
Log for more details." I then went to open the Event Log and it said "Event
log service is unavailable. Verify that th service is running"... so I went
to services and eventhough Windows Event Log is set to automatic, it was not
running. I clicked to start the service and got back a message that said
that the service could not be started "Error 2:The system cannot find the
specified file." The path to this service was shown to be
"C:\Windows\System32\svchost.exe -k LocalServiceNetworkRestricted" so I went
to the system32 folder in windows and I have a file named svchost.exe so I
don't know if the LocalServiceNetworkRestricted has anything to do with this.

Someone please help!

Hi,

Have you at anytime ever turned off any Services?

The Image Path value you posted is correct. Running the SFC command might help. See:

Some Windows Vista functions may not work, or Windows Vista may stop responding:

Yes I have turned off services that I did not need but not prior to this
happening. Everything was OK and working a few days prior to this. Have no
idea what caused it..

Thanks for the info. I followed the instructions on the page and got this
file as not being able to be repaired:

This is some type of printer file and unfortunately has nothing to do with
my problem. I tried starting the service again after using the system file
checker tool but still no results.

Thanks for your help anyway. :0)

Check this, Susa804.

The Windows Event Log Service cannot be started in Vista.:

I have exactly the same problem as you right down to the way it was
discovered using Diskeeper. I have tried everything listed here as
suggested by other investigation and I am afraid still nothing.
Currently working with experts exchange to try and find an answer....

So far no one seems to be able to assit. Strange then that it has
happened the same way on mutally exclusive machines.

Hi BGR,

Have you checked the link I posted earlier? It says to verify if the "logs" folder is present and if it's writable.

Ramesh..

Yes have checked and the permissions are OK.....even changed them to
FULL CONTROL to double check. have even moved the log folder just to
se if Vista recreated it. Nothing. BTW my System Restore is also
corrupt and unable to run. I have a feeling it is all inter-related.

Hi Bgr,

Perhaps we can work on this issue offline, if you can send me a PM.

I have found the solution myself via the net. The problem was caused
by JV16 Powertools 2008 by Macecraft. It is a bug in their software.

Installation of the software apparently adds registry keys of which
some are empty. There may be many issues but the key that affects the
event log services is listed below. Removal of this key and a re-boot
should correct the problem. As always take a backup of your registry
before making any changes.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Eventlog
\Parameters

I had the same problem all i did was : Run safe mode for networking,
Start, All Programs, Accessories, System
Tools, System Restore and pick the time that your computer was last working perfectly and then restart normally and that should work. I used that on my windows 7 so it might be a little different with other os'
