I have manually edited the registry file on one of my filebeats containers in an attempt to get it to reprocess specific files.

Manual Edit of Registry file

What kind of manul edit did you do? Did you just remove entries from the JSON, or did you modify the offset?

Can you share your filebeat configuration? Have you configured some setting to ignore older files?
