@pujan - To tell you simply what "Universal Forwarder Credentials" is:

* An App that contains an SSL certificate and other stuff for Splunk UF to send data to your Splunk cloud stack.

* Also, I think it contains outputs.conf, to specify where data will going to be forwarded (address of your cloud stack).

 

To collect the Windows logs, as I can see you have already downloaded the Add-on for Windows. You can follow its' documentation to see how to configure the inputs - https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/AddOns/released/Windows/AbouttheSplunkAdd-onforWindows

 

If you have more than 2-3 windows forwarders to deploy same Windows input on, I would prefer to deploy all these Apps including UF Cloud Credentials App via deployment server. Reference - https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/9.1.3/Updating/Configuredeploymentclients

 

I hope this helps!!!
