Why sometimes my event viewer instead of naming the "event type" correctly with letters it names it with numbers?

Yes, this has been seen for a while now. Each time you start up the PC, the first time you open Event Viewer it's normal. Every time after that it has the numbers. It has been observed at least as far back as build 22000.168
