What determines which type is displayed?
I assume that it is configuration settings, but which?

Couple of questions.... - 1. Is there a good way to research error log. I find this feature a sad example of MS work. Can not even cut and paste and error information is, well just like a lot of MS stuff, unacceptable. 2. On the start menu, right click, there are different..
