Greetings @riqbal47010,
Yes, this is possible with the Windows TA. See documentation below. Of particular interest to you is WinEventLog in the third link. You can also check out the inputs.conf in the default directory after installing the add-on (note that all inputs are disabled by default - you can copy stanzas into a new inputs.conf in the local directory in order to enable Event Log monitoring). 11724 is the Windows Application Event Code that documents uninstallations.
