I am getting the error " **metricset 'system/load' is not registered, metricset not found**". I know that on Windows the system/load metricset is not supported. It is commented out in my metricbeat.yml file:

> #========================== Modules configuration ============================  
> metricbeat.modules:
> 
> #------------------------------- System Module -------------------------------
> 
> - module: system  
> metricsets:
> - cpu # CPU usage
> - filesystem # File system usage for each mountpoint  
> #- fsstat # File system summary metrics  
> #- load # CPU load averages
> - memory # Memory usage
> - network # Network IO  
> #- process # Per process metrics  
> #- process\_summary # Process summary  
> #- uptime # System Uptime  
> #- core # Per CPU core usage
> - diskio # Disk IO  
> #- raid # Raid  
> #- socket # Sockets and connection info (linux only)  
> enabled: true  
> period: 300s  
> processes: ['.\*']

I am unsure why I keep getting this issue if I have the load metricset commented out?

Could you please format your config using `</>`? It preserves whitespaces, etc.

Do you still get the error if you delete the line?  
Also, what's the output of `./metricbeat modules list`?
