Why each option
The Windows NT Event Viewer is a centralized logging utility that stores system, application, and security logs for monitoring and troubleshooting purposes.
This choice is incorrect because the NT Event Viewer contains more than just System logs.
This choice is incorrect because the NT Event Viewer contains more than just Application logs.
This choice is incorrect because the NT Event Viewer contains more than just Security logs.
The Windows NT Event Viewer is designed to consolidate various types of logs, including the System log for OS and driver events, the Application log for software events, and the Security log for auditing login attempts and resource access. Therefore, it holds all three types.
