HI I installed the wireshark latest version on windows 10 home 64 bits pc. i can run tshark -i Wi-fi on the command line. but there is no gui windows app display. i search the internet, it is suggested that this is due to the winpcap, npcap problem, but i cannot figure out how to solve it. please help. thanks

Do you mean that Wireshark doesn't display anythingever, or do you mean that Wireshark does have a GUI display but it's not showing the Wi-Fi interface, or do you mean that you don't get a GUI display when you run tshark -i Wi-Fi from the command line?

yes, when i enter tshark -i Wi-Fi from the command line, i see the wireshark is capturing wifi data and displaying them in the command window, but no gui displayed

Invoking tshark doesn't create a "GUI", as in an application window, tshark just writes output to the command shell.

To obtain a GUI, invoke Wireshark.

I tried invoking Wireshark from the command line. Nothing happen.

Not even an error? Does wireshark -v give any output?

wireshark -v produces nothing

You can try to install ncap manually. Download the file from https://npcap.com/ and install it with the Wi-Fi raw option.

thank you for your advice, i manually reinstall npcap and restart wireshark, it just work for one min and the application automatically shut down, I check the wifi property, npcap and winpcap driver are working. I restart wireshark again, no gui.
