To help you, we need details of your OS and the Wireshark version.

Try version 4.2.2 as it fixes a number of issues with the installer.

The installer issues won't fix using Win 8.1 as the OS.

Windows 8.1 is out of support, you'll need to use a 4.0.x version of Wireshark. Look at the "Old Stable Release" item on the download page.

See the Wireshark End of Support list for more info on supported versions.
