  The problem is that even "what is denied" is quite a lot.  I gather
that a lot of software (again, including Windows Explorer and MS
Office) follows a paradigm of first trying to acquire full access, and
when that gets denied by the OS, trying for more limited access.  The
result is a constant stream of Audit Failure events, as processes
(running with user privilege) try for full access to various parts of
the system, DLLs, EXEs, and so on.
