PS: Interestingly, when I open the Interface List dialog in Wireshark, it shows live values in "Packet" and "Packet/s" columns for the interface. However, when I "Start" the capture on the same interface, then it gives the error below.

The capture session could not be initiated ().

Please check that "\Device\NPF_{96896B6D-2F50-4415-B46F-6A59A1382DB1}" is the pr
