C:\etc\rancher\wins\config
C:\var\lib\rancher\agent\rancher2_connection_info.json
C:\etc\rancher\rke2\config.yaml.d\50-rancher.yaml
C:\var\lib\rancher\agent\applied\*-*-applied.plan
C:\usr\local\bin\rke2
C:\var\lib\rancher\capr\idempotence\idempotent.sh
C:\etc\rancher\node\password
C:\var\lib\rancher\rke2\agent\logs\kubelet.log
C:\var\lib\rancher\rke2\data\v1.**.**-rke2r*-windows-amd64-*\bin\*
