File extension EVM description:
The maximum file size, which is ordinarily 50MB, can be set from an environment variable, named SCMLogSize. This variable’s value is a decimal number of MB. Everything else about the log file is hard-coded.
The log file is operated in circular mode, but SERVICES itself manages log files for previous sessions. Each time that SERVICES starts, it renames the existing SCM.EVM file to a backup. There can be as many as five such backups, with names from SCM.EVM.1 to SCM.EVM.5 inclusive. Thus, whether you knew it or not, whether you wanted it or not, your switched-off computer typically has a very detailed record of what SERVICES executed in each of the previous five times that you started Windows.

Microsoft Windows Vista is a line of graphical operating systems used on personal computers, including home and business desktops, notebook computers, Tablet PCs, and media centers.
On January 30, 2007, it was released worldwide to the general public and was made available for purchase and downloading from Microsoft's web site. The release of Windows Vista comes more than five years after the introduction of its predecessor, Windows XP, making it the longest time span between two releases of Microsoft Windows.
Windows Vista contains hundreds of new features; some of the most significant include an updated graphical user interface and visual style dubbed Windows Aero, improved searching features, new multimedia creation tools such as Windows DVD Maker, and completely redesigned networking, audio, print, and display sub-systems. Vista also aims to increase the level of communication between machines on a home network using peer-to-peer technology, making it easier to share files and digital media between computers and devices. For developers, Vista includes version 3.0 of the .NET Framework, which aims to make it significantly easier for developers to write high-quality applications than with the traditional Windows API.
There are several editions of Windows Vista:
- Windows Vista Starter
- Windows Vista HomeBasic
- Windows Vista Home Premium
- Window Vista Business
- Windows Vista Enterprise
- Windows Vista Ultimate
