Event logs full of error 7000

[X-13]

Getting an Error 7000 every few seconds in the event logs?

 

Fed up of seeing this:

 

The Diagnostic Service Host service failed to start due to the following error:

A privilege that the service requires to function properly does not exist in the service account configuration.

 

Want to stop that?

 

Give "LOCAL SERVICE" [sans quotes] the Profile System Performance privilege.

 

Seriously. It's that simple... Yet I keep forgetting it.

 

So, EduGeek now gets this post so I can remind myself when googling in the future. Hi, Future me!
