I was finally able to resolve it by following the steps below:

  • Go to 'System Environment Variables'

  • Verify 'JAVA_HOME' is pointing to the correct location. If not, change it.

    C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-13.0.1

  • Go to the 'bin' folder for elastic-search-7.4.2 and run below commands to remove and reinstall the service.

    C:\elasticsearch-7.4.2\bin elasticsearch-service.bat remove

    C:\elasticsearch-7.4.2\bin elasticsearch-service.bat install
