# Audit Application Generated
**Applies to**
- Windows 10
- Windows Server 2016
Audit Application Generated generates events for actions related to Authorization Manager [applications](https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc770563.aspx).
Audit Application Generated subcategory is out of scope of this document, because [Authorization Manager](https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc726036.aspx) is very rarely in use and it is deprecated starting from Windows Server 2012.
