The Maximum Log Size (KB) machine setting should be configured correctly for the application log. This policy requires Windows Vista or later versions of Windows. This policy setting specifies the maximum size of the log file in kilobytes. If you enable this policy setting, you can configure the maximum log file size to be between 1 megabyte (1024 kilobytes) and 2 terabytes (2147483647 kilobytes) in kilobyte increments. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, the maximum size of the log file maximum size will be set to the local configuration value. This value can be changed by the local administrator using the log properties dialog and it defaults to 20 megabytes. For backwards compatibility the same setting can also be configured at Computer Configuration\\Windows Settings\\Security Settings\\Event Log, if set at both locations this one will take precedence. Fix: (1) GPO: Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Event Log Service\Application\Maximum Log Size (KB) (2) KEY: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\EventLog\Application\MaxSize
