I can confirm, thought it is possibly due to the switchable graphics of the Lenovo W500 and T500, since this is unfortunately no longer 100% compatible since Windows 10, but nice to hear that it is probably not because of it. :giggle:

My laptop only has one graphics card Nvidia RTX 2060.

How has Microsoft managed to break an App that has always worked?

It has nothing to do with the graphics.

First time opening is fine, close and open again and it's all numbers. This is the same on every machine I have installed W11 on, Intel or AMD cpus with their own in-built graphics, or a Hyper-V virtual machine with Microsoft's own virtual graphics 'hardware'.

Exact same experience on a cleanly installed Windows 11.

But it is no Problem, my Win11 22000.168 is working fine, on the old Laptops T500 and Lenovo W500 from the Vista time.

Same here for some time. For me it is called "level" not "Event type", with what should be values of warning, error, info, etc.
