Is there a way to stop SQL Server from including all successful login records from the ERRORLOG file?

That doesn't happen by default, so someone must have configured it that way. First I'd check and see why that was done.

Object explorer -> right click the server and select properties. Go to security and change the option from Audit successful and failed logins to Audit failed logins
