When you say “in Application logs show fine” – how far does named actually get (if at all)? For example whenever I (re)start the “ISC BIND” service on my Windows server I get *loads* of entries in the Application log, starting with these three:

starting BIND 9.16.18 (Stable Release) <id:1c027c4>

running on Windows 10 0 build 17763 1879 for x64
[it’s actually Windows Server being misdetected as Windows 10, but the build numbers are correct]

built with 'with-tools-version=15.0 with-platform-toolset=v141 with-platform-version=10.0.17763.0 with-vcredist=C:/Program\ Files\ (x86)/Microsoft\ Visual\ Studio/2017/BuildTools/VC/Redist/MSVC/14.16.27012/vcredist_x64.exe with-openssl=C:/OpenSSL with-libxml2=C:/libxml2 with-libuv=C:/libuv without-python with-system-tests x64'

I go back to BIND 9.17.12 and is starts fine install BIND 9.16.18 changed log on to “local system account” like I have done for years go to start BIND get error 1067 in:

system logs

The ISC BIND service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 1 time(s). The following corrective action will be taken in 60000 milliseconds: Restart the service.

And in Application logs show fine

Maybe its just windows 10 pro? Or is it possible to have bind coded to no longer run in win 10?
