Event log service has start, stop, pause, restart, etc.
greyed out and the event log is not logging at all. Is
there a registry setting I can check?
 
Hi rene,

Tell us where you are seeing this...
If it is under Services, is the "Automatic" showing next to "Start up type"?
 
The temporary fix;
You might try changing the file properties to "Overwrite as needed"

Else; Control Panel|Administrative Tools|Services|Event Log Service|General,
set the "Startup Type:" to "Disabled" restart the pc, then delete (or move)
the corrupt *.evt file(s) from %windir%\system32\config then set the Event
Log Service "Startup Type:" back to "Automatic", restart for effect.

The more permanent fix;
