About this extension

Quickly look up Windows Security Event IDs for detailed information. Simply select an Event ID, right-click, and choose "Lookup Event ID" to access relevant documentation and insights. This tool is ideal for system administrators and security analysts investigating Windows security events.

Developer comments

This extension helps users quickly access information about Windows Event IDs by linking directly to documentation sites. If a specific Event ID returns no information, it may not be documented on the site being accessed. The extension does not store or analyze logs but simply redirects the user to relevant documentation when available. Users can verify specific event information on Microsoft’s official documentation or related resources.

To optimize browser performance and conserve resources, it’s recommended to keep these extensions disabled when they are not in use. You can easily enable any extension when you need to perform a lookup or access specific information, then disable it afterward. This approach helps reduce the extensions' impact on system memory and keeps your browser running smoothly.
