how to prevent a program from closing wireshark?

I am trying to capture packets from a specific program but every time I try and open the program while wireshark is running it automatically closes wireshark and the program im trying to capture packets from. I'm assuming its searching for wireshark.exe in my task manager but I dont know how to bypass this so it stops closing wireshark.

I have tried renaming wireshark but it still shows up in my task manager (windwos 10) as wireshark.

Anyone have any ideas?
