Included Keywords
Included Keyword(s) are the keywords that if an event contains any of them it will be displayed regardless of the exclude keywords or excluded event types. The Syntax is "Syntax: keyword1,keyword2, ..." (without quotes).An example is:
administrator,failed
Excluded Event ID-Keyword
The events that have this "keyword" in their description won't be included to the report and this option is used to filter Windows Event messages. The combination "event-keyword" is used in order to have more granularity.The Syntax is "Syntax: EventID1-Keyword1,EventID2-Keyword2" (without quotes). An example is:
578 - seincreasebasepriorityprivilege
Note: the "Include Keywords" has precedence over the "exclude".
