index="hx_vm" LogName="Microsoft-Windows-Sysmon/Operational" "EventCode=11" ComputerName=DESKTOP-933JR8B
| eval {name} = replace("C:\Windows\SysWOW64\OneDriveSetup.exe","\", "\\")
| search Image = name
| table _time, TargetFilename

 

 

The variable usage part is difficult.

Where is the question?  Three detail you need in a post: how does the data look like, what is it that you expect as result, what is the logic between data and expected result; if you post sample code, explain the result you get and why it doesn't meet requirements.

Looking at your sample code, I guess you do not mean | search Image = "name", because that's exactly what the code means.  Anything on the right of an equal sign  in a search command is a string.  Try

index="hx_vm" LogName="Microsoft-Windows-Sysmon/Operational" "EventCode=11" ComputerName=DESKTOP-933JR8B
| eval name = replace("C:\Windows\SysWOW64\OneDriveSetup.exe","\", "\\")
| where Image == name
| table _time, TargetFilename
