Event Viewer:
With the Event Viewer the Admin can keep track of the event occurring in the computer. This feature helps in keeping track of all this issue , with the computer, suppose the computer gets freeze while installing or doing anything , we can keep track of the possible reason for the issue. And start the troubleshooting according to that.

All the applications need some sort of services to work, these services work in the background, we can access this by Run >> services.msc, In a popup windows you will find all the services present in the computer. For Example consider the case of windows update, for windows update there are several services needed, for example RPC ( remote procedure call ) & for the printer services are print spooler . So you can track each and every service running on your system from here and handle any unauthorized or suspicious one. One can also free some memory and CPU usage with checking the services way of starting which can be either set manually or with the windows startup. Starting them manually save your resource allocation for the time frame you don't demand them.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
For example:
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.
Please help....thanks.
