Fix: ESENT Event ID 455 Error Message in Windows 10 1903

An error, ESENT Event ID 455 has been appearing in in the Event Viewer for many Windows versions including Windows 10 1903. Several users reported that after updating to build 18362.86 the issue occurred. This error is of cosmetic nature, but you can fix it quickly.

The main reason behind this problem is Windows wants to log something, but it can not because the EDB.log is missing. You could assume that the following path doesn’t exist –
