Enabling BITS logging

  • Article

Here's an oldie but a goodie. Heath Stewart provides example scripts on how to enable and disable ETW logging for the BITS service.

    Thanks for sharing the zip file to enable and disable the logging for BITS. This is very nice to have.

    I know this is the wrong place to post this question, but I can't find the answer anywhere on this site. I'm looking for a forum to ask questions and discuss many of the things mentioned on this blog, specifically relating to WMI but I can't find one. Any ideas? Thanks

    Hmm... that turns on logging to a .etl file. When I use the normal windows event viewer, I can turn on the logging for BITS in a readable format (it apparently reads from a etl memory buffer). So is that script really a good way? (Especially as I was not yet able to open the .etl files in a viewer which actually knows the source and can display the binary data).
