Hello,  using the Crowdstrike Falcon sensor installation (https://github.com/CrowdStrike/ansible_collection_falcon)  and this works just fine on Linux, but did require the ansible.windows collection along with it. 

Running the install against a Windows machine returns the following error. Wondering if anyone knew what the cause/fix is? Thanks! 

TASK [crowdstrike.falcon.falcon_installation : ansible.builtin.include_tasks] ***17:22:28
included: /runner/requirements_collections/ansible_collections/crowdstrike/falcon/roles/falcon_installation/tasks/win_api.yml for Win2019Test

TASK [crowdstrike.falcon.falcon_installation : CrowdStrike Falcon | Authenticate to CrowdStrike API] ***17:22:28

An exception occurred during task execution. To see the full traceback, use -vvv. The error was: at <ScriptBlock>, <No file>: line 50

fatal: [Win2019Test]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Unhandled exception while executing module: The term 'Get-AnsibleWindowsWebRequestSpec' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again."}

The error indicates you are using too Ansible 2.9 with the ansible.windows collection. The collection in question only supports 2.10 or newer due to it's dependency on functionality that was introduced in 2.10 or later.
