It's always a good idea to install a newer npcap driver in case of problems.

Due to your older system and some changes by Microsoft you could instead install npcap 1.79 to see if that improves the situation.

Furthermore, make sure that the driver is always started. That is done through some control panel for sure, but I'm not a Windows person, so I'm not sure which.

And if that doesn't fix it, it's a Npcap issue, rather than a Wireshark issue, so it should be reported as an issue on the Npcap issue list.
