Hi @Einbasaharan,

It seems that there are some versions of Windows that don't support the Win32_Process class, we check it for Vista and older versions, maybe for 2012 it is also not supported, but in the documentation they mention that it is supported starting on Windows 2008. I have oppened an issue to investigate this (#105).

Thanks for reporting!

@Einbasaharan do you have by chance the possibility to test it also in Windows 2012 R2? Thanks!

@jsoriano
Windows 2012 R2 seems to be reporting the data to elastic.
Thanks.
