Hey @aamirulh,

I also faced a similar issue earlier while monitoring the windows event logs. If the data you are trying to read is windows event logs, try assigning winevt-preprocess sourcetype to the data in the monitor stanza and have the file ingested. 

Please find the reference stanza below:

[monitor://C:\Program Files\SplunkUniversalForwarder\tmp\file.evtx]                                                                               
index=<<index_name>>                                                                                                                                                   
disabled=0                                                                                                                                                        
renderXml=false                                                                                                                                                   
sourcetype=preprocess-winevt

PS. This will not work with the Add Data GUI operation.
