[npcap] - wireshark stopped see adapters after windows 10 updated to "annivarsary edition" #467
Hi.
Today windows 10 was updated and wireshark don't see network adapters any more.
I am tried to reinstall npcap and wireshark - this wasn't helpful.
Npcap installed in winpcap compat. mode and wireshark detected npcap during install process.
Is your OS x86 or x64? Which Npcap version and Wireshark version did you use? Which Npcap installation options did you choose? Thanks.
I have tested latest Npcap 0.08 r3 (with WinPcap Compat Mode) and latest Wireshark Development Release (2.1.1) on my Win10 x64 Anniversary version without any issues.
Please don't use Wireshark Stable Release because it can't recognize the new version Npcap when installed in non-WinPcap Compat Mode (which is by default).
d:\downloads\111>net start npcap
System error 577 has occurred.
Windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file. A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source.
For completeness sake: this is the EV version installed on Windows 2012 R2 (server) - UEFI with secure boot. So AFAIK the attestation is also needed here or else there is still something else wrong.
I got the Windows Security pop-up 'Would you like to install this device software ?", to which I answered 'no' (do not always trust Insecure LLC).
@BavoB: Perhaps I understand you incorrectly (or you incorrectly understood
me), but I said that I *can* install pcap-0.78-r4-ev.exe (I thought that
this was a EV-signed driver, and not the attestation-signed drivers)
without errors; in other words, that it *does* work for me.
Oops sorry my bad.

OK, although (our) best practices state the opposite ;-).

I got the Windows Security pop-up 'Would you like to install this device software ?", to which I answered 'no'
If you choose no here, then you will always fail the driver install no matter how our driver is signed. So please choose yes.

It appears to me as if two things are getting mixed up here, but I may be wrong ? (I made a screenshot of the pop-up I get, yours may be different). In the pop-up, there are actually two related, but different, things. First of all, there is a 'checkbox' that you can check if you always want to trust drivers singed by "Insecure.Com LLC". You don't have to check that box, but you can. I'm guessing that if you do check the box to always trust the signer that you will never get this pop-up again, and that you will get the pop-up again if you don't.
Then there are the 'install' and 'dont install' buttons. If you want to install the driver (and I'm guessing that you want to) then you must click the button that says 'install'. If you haven't checked the checkbox in combination with clicking on 'install', you will only trust the signer once, for this install only, instead of always.
0.78 r2-ev does not work(fails to create services) 0.78 r2-atestation works
with 0.78 r4 windows gives an error after installation saying that it blocked the installation of a driver not digitally signed
0.78 r4-ev still gives me the same error as 0.78 r4 even if I mark the always trust box(witch does not appear on 0.78 r4) (checking that box should have made it accept the driver I think)
Windows 10 Pro 1607 (it's a clean install, not an update from a previous version) with secure boot enabled
Ok, all: I just published Npcap 0.78 r5, which has attestation-signed drivers for Win10 users, dual-signed SHA1/SHA256 drivers with MS Cross-Certs for Windows 8 and earlier. We are back in business! Do let us know if you still experience these problems.
Hi,
Everything seems to work as expected (Win10 x64 1607 fresh install with secure boot on).
Thanks,
Bavo

Hi,
WORKSFORME: Win10 x64 1607, upgrade from Win7, secure boot on. No pup-ups
during installation asking for permission. Wireshark able to capture
packets as expected. Note: Npcap loopback adapter doesn't get uninstalled
upon npcap uninstall.
OK, I had a chance to uninstall 0.78 r4 on a Window Win2012 R2 server + install 0.78 r5 (system with secure boot enabled). My findings, some of which have been reported before:
uninstalling took very long and didn't remove the adapters (which I removed manually), but eventually it did uninstall - it seemed to be stuck on the 'stopping npcap driver' stage
installing 0.78 r5 worked, but I did get the 'failed to create service' error: however after installing it seemed to work ==> i did not have winpcap installed on this system, I installed npcap in winpcap api compatible mode and the programs that normally rely on winpcap seemed to be working normally
So I guess there is some progress ;-)
I have some questions:
what services are created by the installer, what is their name? (I'd like to check in services msc to see if it is running)
are the uninstall problems also related to the (kernel) driver signing requirements/problems ==> although here I'm not running on Win10 based system
what is the current status of npcap compared to winpcap: can this be run safely with a program like Wireshark (without Winpcap)?
Looks like we handled the core issue reported here. If you continue to have problems with uninstalling, please open a new issue so we can track and fix it. Thanks!

I tried your environment and didn't encounter that issue. What error message did you actually see?
zdm commentedon Aug 8, 2016
Wireshark doesn't show any errors, just shows no adapters.

I have removed winpcap and installed npcap-v0.08-r2 with default options.
In not elevated cmd nmap return nothing:

But in elevated I got error:

Oh, I forgot to say.
Please install Nmap's dev version: https://nmap.org/dist/nmap-7.25BETA1-setup.exe
And please install latest Npcap 0.08 r3.

With nmap-7.25-beta1 results are the same.
