There are some of those! Along with 330, 105, 301, 326, 641, 302, 102, 103, 300, and I just assume a few others, all coming from ESENT.

I guess that's a question: what would it look like on a Windows 10 system if it had a truly broken ESENT installation? As far as I know ESENT has never directly been a problem. Its log output is just part of the noise that now makes using the Event Viewer a complete waste of time unless one knows precisely when a problem was logged.

Believe me, if I thought the state of the Event Viewer and its logs were the fault of any one person, I'd be able to muster some sort of impassioned, vituperative response. I'm not angry, son, I'm just so disappointed in you. Ahem.

LOL! "Disappointed", Nice, Justin. :)

Those other ones are Information events however, not Warning events. ESE (as part of being "embeddable") has a couple of logging level controls (JET_paramEventLoggingLevel, and JET_paramNoInformationEvent). Each component is responsible for setting it's event logging level, the ESE default is ... let me call it, "fully diagnosable mode" (for us, not you ;).

Anyways, all events start like this: "svchost (48984,R,98) TILEREPOSITORYS-1-5-18 .." ... the service exe name at beginning, and the "instance" name there at the end. If you get me a few of the noisier components, I will try to find the Windows component owners and suggest to them that they set the logging level higher.
