Zabbix agent2 installation failed on Windows server 2022

[zhelembai]

Hi All,

We have facing a problem with installation of Zabbix agent 2 7.0.24 MSI and archive package as well on multiple Windows server 2022. It is the same issue on all Windows servers. (link for agent: https://cdn.zabbix.com/zabbix/binari...64-openssl.msi)

Error message:
"zabbix_agent2: ERROR: Failed to open event log: Access is denied."

We have tried with administrative privileges and also from elevated command line. No success yet.
Do you have any suggestion how to move on with this problem?

Thank you very much for your kind help!
Regards,
Zoltán
