Hi,  
Im trying to use the elasticsearch xpack feature.  
I set up the  
`xpack.security.enabled: true` in`elasticsearch.yml`  
and  
`elasticsearch.username: "pearson" elasticsearch.password: "password@123"` in `kibana.yml`

I restarted the services, both Kibana and Elasticsearch.  
But the authentication page doesnt seem to comeup.

Any reason why?  
Please help me.

I am using 7.1.0 of both and I have installed both as a service from zip files in Windows. @Christian_Dahlqvist
