What is the error in the logs when you restart winlogbeat ? Would you mind sharing more information - like logs, version, steps to reproduce etc ?

Thanks

So finally got the solution

I delete the indices for winlogbeat in elasticsearch

curl -XDELETE [http://localhost:9200/winlogbeat\*](http://localhost:9200/winlogbeat*)
