Hi

I'm running filebeat on windows sending data to logstash, but I cannot find the registry file from filebeat. Filebeat is installed under C:\Bitnami\filebeat.

Can you tell me where that file should be located?

Thanks,  
Kurt

if you have used the standard install script the registry file is located under C:\ProgramData\filebeat
