Looks like I need to use a powershell script or logparser to do the conversion. I found some stuff on the internet to help with this for those who may have this issue in the future! Convert evtx Files: Powershell Try: $a = Get-Item *.evtx $output_file = [System.IO.StreamWriter] $("all.csv") foreach($file in $a){ $events = get-winevent -path $file.FullName foreach ($Event in $events) { $xml = [xml]($Event.ToXml()) foreach ($s in $xml.Event.System.ChildNodes) { $output_file.Write($s.Name + ":" + $s.InnerText + ",") } foreach ($d in $xml.Event.EventData.Data) { $text = $d.InnerText $text = if ($text) { $text.replace("`n","") } else { $text } $output_file.Write($d.Name + ":" + $text + ",") } $output_file.WriteLine() } } $output_file.Flush() $output_file.Close() LogParser: (Download from Microsoft.com) $logparser = "c:\program files (x86)\Log Parser 2.2\logparser.exe"$query = "SELECT * INTO c:\logs\logs.csv FROM c:\logs\logs.evtx" & $logparser -i:evt -o:csv $query I have not actually tried this yet, but will be giving it a shot in the near future, I expect some tweaking to the scripting may need to be required.
