Hi Glenn, 

This is almost surely a permissions or overly aggressive security settings issue. Please see: https://gitlab.com/wireshark/wireshark/-/work_items/20170

Also try the 4.6 branch, which should give you a more informative error message due to the fix added for that issue.

Cheers,

John Thacker
