Filtering Windows Events by User Account
In Windows, you can filter events in the event logs based on specific criteria, such as the user account associated with an event. This can be particularly useful for security and auditing purposes. Below are examples of XML queries that filter Windows events by user account using XPath expressions.
Example 1: Filter Successful Logon Events (Event ID 4624) by User Account
