Recently received the following error while trying to do a packet capture on windows.
There are two solutions to this problem
- Disable promiscuous mode for the adapter
- Update Npcap
Disable Promiscuous mode
“Please turn off promiscuous mode for this device”
You can turn on promiscuous mode by going to Capture -> Options
Uncheck promiscuous
And click Start
Update Npcap
If you need promiscuous mode on, then look at installing a newer version of Npcap
Restart Wireshark, and Start a capture.
