system event warnings

This pc has multiple drives (partitions) and they are near capacity. I know
this, it's OK. The system log always shows warnings that these drives are
near capacity (e.g. Drive E: is at or near capacity. You may need to delete
some files.) . Is there any way to stop those warning from being recorded in
the log?

TIA

In the left pane right click on the System Log and click on Properties
and the click on the Filter tab. The same can be done by higlighting
the log in the left pane and then clicking on the "Action" menu.

You can change the default value by Adding a REG_DWord value
"DiskSpaceThreshold"
to
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters

Set this value to the percentage of free disk space remaining before the OS
sends an alert. The allowable range is 0 to 99

John, tried the solution but it does not appear to do what I'd like. I
set the SRV param to not show warnings for the category DISK (unchecked
warning), clicked apply, everything in log disappears!

Selected to show ALL events, all categories, and voila, the low disk
space warning are still there. Hmmm.

Can you please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Again, the idea is to show
ALL events minus low disk space warnings.

Thanks

Hi Dave

Tried the solution below but upon reboot the events log has a RED ERROR
flag stating:

"The value named DiskSpaceThreshold in the servers Registry key
LanmanServer\Parameters was invalid. The value was ignored and
processing continued."

Any idea what's wrong?

TIA

Sorry, I gave you an incorrect answer, follow Dave's lead to disable
logging of the event.

Dave, got the issue figured out. Inserted the wrong value in the key
initially. Works great now. Thanks!
