Enable log.level debug. If you get the debug message "Reading config file" then that suggests a permissions problem, logstash cannot read the file. If you do not get that debug message then Dir.glob of that path is not returning anything, which really suggests the file does not exist.

Using config.test_and_exit mode. Config Validation Result: OK. Exiting Logstash
looks like config file is fine and is there in bin directory i just verified.

Maybe this will sound stupid but move the whole Logstash directory to C:
Logstash causes problems in windows with long paths
