> Windows will default to backslashes for paths, but will also accept slashes.  When configured for "Tailing Mode" of "Multiple Files" in Windows, if the user opts to use backslashes for the path (using non-escaped backslashes will cause a validation error), this will validate appropriately and allow the processor to be started.  
> When running and a TailFile listing is performed, this comes back in the default Windows format using backslashes.  This causes the regex to not match for any of the paths and no files to be included for consideration.
