Here is the output:

Here swarnkarr is user domain.

Also, I see this when I start kibana.bat

'WHERE' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I tried Commenting bat lines containing WHERE as @KavyaS says [here](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/kibana-showing-where-is-not-an-int-or-ext-command-on-start-up/36544/5).  
No luck.
