| Data type | Range | Default value |
|---|---|---|
| REG_DWORD | 0x0 - 0x1F bitmask | There is no default value for this entry. |
Indicates the types of events generated by the source program.
The value of this entry determines which of the Types check boxes in Event Viewer are enabled. (To see the Types check boxes, from the View menu in Event Viewer, click Filter.)
Each bit in the mask represents an event type. To indicate that the source program generates events of a certain type, set the bit for that type to 1. To indicate that the source program supports more than one type of event, set multiple bits or sum the hexadecimal values for each event type.

Caution
Do not change the value of this entry by editing the registry. Changing this value does not change the types of events generated by a source program. Source programs that add events of a new type should use the standard Win32 APIs to change this value.
