I figured that KV_MODE = xml for any XmlWinEventLog is not working somehow. Maybe it is not prober XML. I could not find something in answer. But as I have the same problem I found a lot of suggestions using KV_MODE = xml. But it just does not work ;-).

I personally would use Splunk_TA_windows Transforms. They do extract the fields perfect. But the stanza in the splunk App [(?::){0}XmlWinEventLog:*] does not work for me.
So I copied the Transforms directly to the sourcetype and created a local/props.conf:
e.g.
[XmlWinEventLog:Microsoft-Windows-WindowsUpdateClient/Operational]
KV_MODE = none
REPORT-0xml_block_extract = system_xml_block,eventdata_xml_block,userdata_xml_block,debugdata_xml_block,renderinginfo_xml_block
REPORT-0xml_kv_extract = system_props_xml_kv,system_props_xml_attributes,eventdata_xml_data,rendering_info_xml_data
Maybe somebody can comment on this issue? But the above solution works perfectly for me.
Have a good day.
