I have installed the latest version of gstreamer (v1.16.2) on a Windows 10
with a full installation and testing simple examples I have checked that
several common elements are missing.

With a command like:

gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! capsfilter caps=video/x-raw,format=GRAY8 !
videoconvert ! autovideosink

I receive this log:

GST_INIT gst.c:810:init_post: initialized GStreamer successfully
GST_PIPELINE gstparse.c:337:gst_parse_launch_full: parsing pipeline
description 'videotestsrc ! capsfilter caps=video/x-raw,format=GRAY8 !

GST_PIPELINE grammar.y:901:priv_gst_parse_yyparse: link has no source

I also have checked that the installer creates a new environment variable
*GSTREAMER_1_0_ROOT_X86_64* pointing to *C:\gstreamer\1.0\x86_64* and it
also adds the *bin* folder to the *Path*.

Does the MSI installer need any additional step to register its plugins on a
Windows Machine ?
