Windows Event Collector with Syslog-ng Premium Edition 7.0.6 and onward

Where is the Windows Event Collector (WEC) Software that is available for Syslog-ng Premium Edition 7.0.6 and onward?

The Windows Event Collector does not have a separate install package outside of standard Syslog NG PE software.
The Windows Event Collector is bundled into the syslog-ng PE installers from version 7.0.6. onward.
A SysV init script and a systemd service file are provided and installed automatically, so by installing syslog-ng PE, you also install WEC.

The Windows machines need to be configured to forward events to a source destination.
