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"?

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

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