Event log error 13: the data is invalid

Service Won’t start: Error 13: The data is invalid.

On Windows server 2012, sometimes a windows service behaves unexpectedly or after a reboot and does not starts giving an error:

I just renamed the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Eventlog key to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Eventlog_old and the Event log service was started successfully.

I hope it helps someone ! Enjoy and leave a message if it helped.
