FilterType=whitelist, blacklisting not working

We're trying to exclude a machine from receiving an app through the Deployment server. In the serverclass "Windows Inputs-events" we want all machines except "WORKSTATIONA" to receive the app.

The machine previously had the app installed before we added the blacklist entry. Will adding the blacklist entry remove the app from the machine? How can we exclude it?

Windows Inputs-events

[serverClass:Windows-events]
restartSplunkd = true
machineTypes = windows-intel,windows-x64
filterType = whitelist
whitelist.0 =*
blacklist.0 = WORKSTATIONA*
[serverClass:Windows-events:app:WinEvents]

[serverClass:Windows-events:app:WMI]

Give this stanza a try:

[serverClass:Windows-events]
restartSplunkd = true
filterType = whitelist
whitelist.0 = *
blacklist.0 = WORKSTATIONA
[serverClass:Windows-events:app:WinEvents]
machineTypes = windows-intel,windows-x64
