I am running on windows 10.

I have downloaded and unzipped both OSS versions of Elasticsearch 6.5.4 and Kibana 6.5.4.

Elasticsearch has started up as expected and can be accessed in my browser at localhost:9200.

Now, when I run KIBANA\_HOME\bin\kibana.bat it hangs but shows nothing. No errors, no warnings, nothing.

I have tried the suggestions in this thread: [Kibana.bat errors on Windows 10](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/kibana-bat-errors-on-windows-10/34233) but have not had any different results.

I have tried restarting my box and also no results what so ever.

Edit:  
After reading this article here: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana-docker/issues/27](https://github.com/elastic/kibana-docker/issues/27) I am wondering if this has something to do with X-Pack (or the lack-thereof)

This sounds like a bug to me. I would suggest opening a Github issue in the Kibana repo: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues)
