Hello! I noticed that sysmon event 11, file creation, is not logging for files created under certain directories, such as the user profile on win10.windomain.local or wef.windomain.local. I looked through the sysmon config file located at C:\ProgramData\Sysmon on wef.windomain.local and didn't see any rules that would exclude this.

On Win10, running this command:

...I see the following sysmon log:

However, running the following:

I don't see the log in Splunk or the Event Viewer on Win10.

Any suggestions on what may be causing this?

Thanks, and love the project btw!
