Why don't Windows event fields appear in search result?

Hi all,

Recently I've upgraded all splunk deployment tiers (search head, Indexer and Heavy Forwarder) and we are collecting Windows event by Splunk_TA_windows add-on.

Before the upgrade, Windows event fields like EventCode was appearing but after the upgrade only general fields is visible.

The Splunk_TA_windows add-on installed on all components of splunk (HF, SH and indexer)

Despite not appearing the fields, I can use missing fields like EventCode in search query and commands like top and stats.

How can I troubleshoot and resolve the problem? What's wrong? Anybody can help me?

Hi @esafaei,

a very stupid question: did you used the Verbose Mode in Search?

Ciao.
