I can run Wireshark once, twice,...but as soon as i do a capture and close the
program, Wireshark won't start and hangs at "Loading the configuration files"
I have an instance of a dumpcap process in the task manager, i cannot end it
manually (access denied) even though i am a local admin on my machine.
dumpcap -D -M returns no output and it hangs in the console.
In the end as soon as i do a capture i need to restart my computer to kill the
dumpcap process, uninstall wireshark and reinstall it so i can make another
capture.
So it appears that after a capture attempt is made a dumpcap process is left
running that then can't be stopped, and this then prevents Wireshark starting
again.
FYI I also created exceptions in my AV for dumpcap and wireshark processes
(ignore scans), i use Symantec Endpoint Protection.
