ELM Console Registry Entries

The table below lists registry entries from the Windows Registry recognized by ELM .

Not all registry entries are created by default; some must be manually created.

If a Name entry is not in the registry, ELM will use the default value listed.

Not all values should be edited through the registry; when this is true, the appropriate interface is given in the Description.

This table does not include the COM classes and libraries that are registered and written to the Registry (under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT) during Setup.

This table does not include the ELM Server service registry entries
(under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services).

If set to 0, then Views will summarize events, and if set to 1, then Views will display one event per line. Views listed in the DetailEventViews and SummaryEventViews registry entries will override this registry entry. This is a global setting that affects all Event Views.

MaxNumAdvises
REG_SZ
5000
No
When the number of advises held in memory reaches this maximum value, they are deleted from memory. No message is generated. If advises are dropped from memory, the events can be displayed by refreshing the view. Increasing this value increases the memory required by the ELM Console (mmc.exe) process. The ELM Console must be closed and re-opened to activate changes. See also SnapinAdviseTimerInMilliseconds.

SnapinAdviseTimerInMilliseconds
REG_DWORD
50
ELM Console restart required
This entry controls how frequently the ELM Console looks in its own queue for new advises (messages) from the ELM Server. Checking the queue and processing waiting advises delays processing of user input like mouse clicks or keystrokes. So setting this value to a high number will make the ELM Console more responsive, but display updates from advises will be slower. Advise updates are independent of user initiated refreshes. The ELM Console must be closed and re-opened to activate changes. See also MaxNumAdvises.
