For those that are wondering - I eventually got this to work by using Filebeat version 6.3.0. From what I could tell, the code in the later version causes filebeat to throw the error "error initializing processors" for "GetFileVersionInfoSize"

For whatever reason this seems to be broken when testing with newer versions - maybe due to the enrollment features added.
