Why are only loopback and usb capture interfaces shown?

With all interfaces shown, my Wireshark installation is only showing a loopback interface and three USB capture interfaces. I just completely uninstalled and reinstalled Wireshark, along with the capturing software (USBPcap, NPcap, WinPcap). Why can I not see my Ethernet and Wireless network interfaces? My real physical interfaces appear to be missing. I have already tried running the application elevated with no change.
