Try running nmap -Pn from nagios to the windows host and post the nsclient/ncpa config from the windows host. Is the service running?

installed NClient++ is installed by using below link :

Have a look at you nsclient.ini, see what the port it will listen on and check allowed hosts. That should list you nagios server addresses or subnets.
Once you know the port and have set the allowed hosts look at windows services for nsclient and verify it's running.
From a windows cmd prompt try
netstat -an | find "port number from nsclient.ini"
Then from the shell on the nagios host
nmap -p<port number from nsclient.ini> <windows host IP>
If the windows host is listening on the port, and nagios doesn't see it as open, you may have a firewall between nagios and the windows host.
Maybe try
systemctl stop firewalld
on the nagios host and try again.
