How to configure Splunk Stream on Windows?

Hi!

Having some trouble configuring windows to collect data from a Windows forwarder(UF). I have a heavy forwarder configured with token where I also have Splunk_TA_stream installed.
On the search head I have both TA_stream and the actual stream app.
On the Windows forwarder, I have pushed out the TA_stream app with inputs.conf pointing towards the search head. I have also made sure the FW openings have been made so that not an issue.

However can't seem to get a connection to the Windows server. I have it configured on a Linux host which works fine.

Read something about WinPcap. I found the docs a bit confusing here though. Something I need to manually install?

Does anyone have other tips or "good to know" knowledge when it comes to stream and windows forwarder?

Perhaps to get some help I need to specify more info. Let me know in that case!

Thanks!

No streamfwd.log seems to have been created I just noticed. On the Windows client-server that is.
