Solution-1: Another alternative that is to change the system setting from dark mode to light mode which impacts the Wireshark setting permanently i.e., lets you open it in Light mode only no matter how many times you choose to open wireshark.

Solution-2: The previous user also mentioned the same thing, but I would advice if you are on your Start menu, select Wireshark and right Click on it, then click on Open File Location. Wireshark Folder Workspace opens up. Open the Wireshark Shortcut menu by clicking on properties and insert the value shared earlier {"C:\Program Files\Wireshark\Wireshark.exe" -platform windows:darkmode=1}. Click on Save and Continue. Once done, open the Wireshark Application again (remove previously saved Shortcut from desktop) and save the newly open Wireshark. Long process but it meets the requirement. Also no matter how many times you open the Wireshark be the newly appointed shortcut on desktop or from taskbar or from start menu, it opens in light mode.
