I see the wineventlog index growing after universal forwarder installation on Windows, but why are there no Windows events in the Search app Data Summary?

Greetings all! I haven't worked with Splunk in about a year so I'm a little rusty. Anyhow, I have Linux systems logging to Splunk no issue. However, I seem to be running into problem with Windows logs. I installed a Universal Forwarder on a few systems. I adjusted the inputs.conf under the system/local folder with the below stanza. When I went into search and reporting > data summary, I was not seeing entries there for logs coming from these systems. However, I checked the wineventlog index and it was rapidly growing. Then, I thought maybe it was an index issue, so I created a new index and updated the stanza to point to that instead. Same issue - didn't see timestamp updates under Data Summary but the index was growing. Verified I couldn't search for the logs either. Ideas? Thanks much in advance! ###### OS Logs ###### [WinEventLog://Application] disabled = false start_from = oldest current_only = 0 index = wineventlog [WinEventLog://Security] disabled = false start_from = oldest current_only = 0 suppress_text = 1 blacklist1 = EventCode="4662" Message="Object Type:\s+(?!groupPolicyContainer)" blacklist2 = EventCode="566" Message="Object Type:\s+(?!groupPolicyContainer)" blacklist3 = 5140,5156-5157,4674 index = wineventlog [WinEventLog://System] disabled = false start_from = oldest current_only = 0 checkpointInterval = 5 index = wineventlog [WinEventLog://Microsoft-Windows-PowerShell/Operational] disabled = false index = wineventlog [WinEventLog://Windows PowerShell] checkpointInterval = 5 current_only = 0 disabled = false start_from = oldest index = wineventlog
