Wireshark 2.6 doesn't find the interfaces and exits the program.
After several reinstalls I'm looking for help. Why can't Wireshark find my interfaces? I have reinstalled multiple times WinPcaP and Wireshark 2.6. Wireshark 2.4.6 worked without any problem. (Microsoft Windows 10 PRO (10.0.17134))
Can you paste the contents of the Help | About Wireshark | Wireshark dialog box?
In fact, I can't. Wireshark closes itself after less than 5 seconds. Can I add somewhere a screenshot?
Maybe use tshark from a command prompt then:
Where
path\to
is the appropriate path to your install of Wireshark, likely to be "C:\Program Files\Wireshark", or "C:\Program Files (x86)\Wireshark", and if it includes spaces will have to be quoted as in the example.tshark output:
(more)OK, that shows that npcap has been found and is being used. Something is up with the interfaces on your machine that prevents the initial scan of interfaces succeeding.
Can you open a PowerShell prompt and show the output of
Get-NetAdaptor
?output:
FYI
Strange, no?
The one that is (somewhat) out of the ordinary is:
Is there any way you can remove or "delete" that so Windows can't see it?
tshark just lists the interfaces configured, Wireshark actually tries to open them to discover more info, such as the link type and this is where bad things are happening.
I disabled Mobiel2. Unfortunately same result!
How did you disable it? Does it still show up in the tshark -D output?
I disabled Mobiel 2 via Device Manager.
OK, so that guess didn't seem to work out, although it's possible npcap might have need some sort of reset to really drop the Mobiel NIC out of the system.
Only thing I can suggest is to try to get tshark to open each interface in turn, maybe use the -L parameter to list the link types, e.g.
repeating for each IF and see if one has issues.
No issues found!
