I am trying to ship Windows logs to Graylog using Nxlog and when trying to apply my configuration, the Sidecar gives me the following error:

ERROR Couldn't open nxlog service; The specified service does not exist as an installed service.

Any idea what could be wrong? I followed the instructions here https://docs.graylog.org/en/3.2/pages/sidecar.html#nxlog-on-windows to set it up.

Thank you.
