Windows Path monitor

When installing the "universal forwarder" I put a "path to monitor".

But I would like to add another path. How do I add more "path to monitor"?

Edit inputs.conf on the UF. Copy the existing monitor stanza and modify the copy to suit. Then restart the forwarder.

Thanks for the answer, researching I discovered more details that I think are important.

PATH: C:\Program Files\SplunkUniversalForwarder\etc\apps\SplunkUniversalForwarder\local

[monitor://C:\Program Files\Idaptive\Idaptive Connector\log.txt]
disabled = false

[monitor://C:\Program Files\Centrify\Centrify Connector\log.txt]
disabled = false

Is there a problem with that?

No problem, I'm just sharing information that I think can help other people. Thank you.
