Windows Logon Types

I have received several requests asking what the different Logon Types are for the different Windows Login/Account Login (528,538,540,672,4624,4634,4768) Events.  These can be found all over the place on Microsoft’s website and others but instead of putting the links I thought I would just put the chart here.
