Resolution

To resolve the issue, run a script to stop the Event ID 10 messages. To run the script, follow these steps:

1. In Notepad, create a new document named Workaround.txt.

2. Copy the following script into notepad:

   VB

   strComputer = "."
   Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
   & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" _
   & strComputer & "\root\subscription")
   Set obj1 = objWMIService.ExecQuery("select * from __eventfilter where name='BVTFilter' and query='SELECT * FROM __InstanceModificationEvent WITHIN 60 WHERE TargetInstance ISA ""Win32_Processor"" AND TargetInstance.LoadPercentage > 99'")
   For Each obj1elem in obj1
   set obj2set = obj1elem.Associators_("__FilterToConsumerBinding")
   set obj3set = obj1elem.References_("__FilterToConsumerBinding")
   For each obj2 in obj2set
   WScript.echo "Deleting the object"
   WScript.echo obj2.GetObjectText_
   obj2.Delete_
   next
   For each obj3 in obj3set
   WScript.echo "Deleting the object"
   WScript.echo obj3.GetObjectText_
   obj3.Delete_
   next
   WScript.echo "Deleting the object"
   WScript.echo obj1elem.GetObjectText_
   obj1elem.Delete_
   Next
   

3. Save the text as Workaround.vbs.

4. Close Notepad.

5. Open an elevated command prompt:

   1. Select Start.
   2. Select Programs.
   3. Right-click on Command Prompt.
   4. Choose run as administrator.

6. Change Directory to the one containing workaround.vbs, for example, CD c:\users\%username%.

7. Run the script workaround.vbs.

After running the script, the Event ID 10 errors related to this event should stop occurring. This script doesn't remove any of the existing entries in the Event log, they would need to be manually cleared out of the application event log.
