whenever windows goes sleep, ,  try turn on, seems windows restarts without windows hat opened gone. no error messages prop up. went event viewer @ errors, got warning , following critical error.  log name:      system source:        eventlog date:          6/19/2017 1:38:21 pm event id:      6008 task category: none level:         error description: previous system shutdown @ 1:16:41 pm on ‎6/‎19/‎2017 unexpected. followed by: log name:      system source:        microsoft-windows-kernel-power date:          6/19/2017 1:38:11 pm event id:      41 task category: (63) level:         critical keywords:      (70368744177664),(2) user:          system computer:      vineet description: system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. error caused if system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly. event xml: <event xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/win/2004/08/events/event"

can please explain me why see several (looks duplicated) event in event viewer after successful logon.  for example after reboot (win 10 workstation, no domain, no specific configuration) see in security log 2 totally identical logs event 4624, type 2 the same situation "unlock" i want show these events in logs: in example pc in domain, , reproducing windows unlock (logoff - logon): first event log name:      security source:        microsoft-windows-security-auditing date:          2/14/2017 1:35:30 pm event id:      4624 task category: logon level:         information keywords:      audit success user:          n/a computer:      mpxxx.xxx.xxx.net description: account logged on. subject: security id:  system account name:  mpxxx$ account domain: kiv logon id:  0x3e7 logon information: logon type:  7 restricted admin mode: - virtual account: no elevated token: yes impersonation leve

this nasty trick cost me lot of time.  i saved xml file enigma i'm supposed able import sonar.  but instead, disappears.  i tried on , on again create, save, , import file, lose repeatedly.  finally, using explorer find file name link sub-sub-sub-sub-subfolder doesn't exist , when try go folder location says file has been deleted or moved.   that dirty trick.  i found it, still mean thing do.  don't placate me cut-and-paste explanation, know why did it,  it's because default save location program subdirectory.  but instead of instructing me put somewhere else, or letting me know you've absconded file, hide away in invisible spot geniuses know is, , idiots me can't see or find , end recreating , saving on , on again.  i feel 2 year old had knicknacks hidden because might break them.  but knicknack hid, not yours.
