I want to edit a registry related to the capture device selected.
To get the registry path of a capture device, we need to know its
SubDriverKey which could be specified somewhere in windows registry.
When Wireshark make a list of available devices for capture
preparation, we get the list from dumpcap but name, description, and
ip_address are saved. Were they retrieved from registry table?
They were retrieved from WinPcap; you'd have to ask the WinPcap
developers where they get that information.
