OK. I decided to build wpcap.dll with VS2013 at least. And the same issue. (mentioned in the first two posts). It will cause Wireshark on Win8.1/10 x64 to crash.

I also used MBCS option instead of Unicode, the same with WinPcap trunk. So weird.

I have attached the wpcap.dll file. Substitute it with the original WinPcap/Npcap version in C:\Windows\System32. Then launch Wireshark and you will see the crash.

Thanks!

It make sense to switch to VS 2015. It uses the Universal CRT, which ships
with Windows 10 and is available via Windows Update (KB 2999226) on earlier

I'm hoping to switch Wireshark's Windows installers to VS 2015 before 2.2
is released, but that depends on our third party DLLs (most notably Kerberos).

Caution.  There have been issues with the Universal CRT, so much so that TortoiseSVN, which jumped onto 2015 very early, now copies the CRT DLL's into the application directory (which is permitted) to avoid the windows update part of the OS portion.

As it happens, my next but one task in the day job is to move our build over to VS2015, so I'll be finding out a lot about this in the next 2 weeks.

As I think I mentioned last year, I did make changes to our winpcap repo to build under VS2013 (all parts) and I didn't find any deployment issues at all.  Hopefully I can check that again very soon.  The bit we need to organise is the signing of the build products.  I can sign with my companies cert for my testing but obviously can't release that to anyone else.  This build of WinPcap was only done to bring the build environment up to date, there were no other functional changes in WinPcap.
