Hello,

We recently began encountering this error on our 2k3 Svr x64 Exchange
2007 server.

*** SNIP ***
The description for Event ID ( 600 ) in Source ( PowerShell ) cannot
be
found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry
information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote
computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve
this
description; see Help and Support for details.
*** SNIP ***

Do I understand correctly that you advise deletion of the following
registry key followed by restarting the machine as the solution to
this problem?
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Eventlog\PowerShell


Please confirm that this is the key to which you are referring.


Thanks,
Tom W.

"Windows PowerShell" is the correct log. The way to get around this is to
Delete the "PowerShell" key under Eventlog and restart the system. Then you
will find that the events get logged properly.

Yes, if you do see that key, remove it. That particular entry is
leftover from one of the pre-release versions of PowerShell v1.
