When you try to open event log from a remove computer, Event Log Explorer uses your current credentials to access this log.
Sometimes you may need to connect a remote computer with different credentials.
If you have not enough permissions, Event Log Explorer displays Access-denied error and will prompt you to input the other credentials (user name and password).
You can also explicitly connect a remote computer with non-default credentials. Select the required computer in the tree, click the right mouse button and select Connect with different credentials.
