I just installed Windows v5.0.2 I have an error on restart from the command line. "Possible typo in stanza [ui] in %Splunk\ect\apps\windows\default\app.conf Line 14 docs_section_override = WindowsApp:5.0.2. I was able to clear the error by removing the attribute pretty sure that is not the right answer.

Well, you can either have the warning, or you can delete that attribute. The attribute is for a newer version of Splunk, one that isn't known in 5.0.2. (Which is why it's generating the warning.) So it's safe to either ignore the warning, or to remove the attribute.
