Solution

Event ID 10001 refers to a log entry addition event that was performed through the Graphical User Interface (GUI). This indicates that an admin-privileged user manually created or submitted a log entry using the system’s frontend interface, rather than via automated scripts or backend processes. This log does not capture any subsequent actions such as editing or removing entries. It serves as a record of user-initiated "add" actions for auditing and traceability.
