Wireshark-users: Re: [Wireshark-users] Default save location, memory limitation, preserve vlan ta
It doesn't work. The dumpcap creates a capture file but the file is empty and doesn't capture anything.

I have 3 questions
1) How do I change the default save directory from c:\docu~\a\temp ? My c drive is very low on space and I need to change this save location to my d drive where I have more space.
2) How can I get wireshark to not stop capturing after RAM runs out ? Thing is the captures I am running are generating about 1gb of capture file size for every 2 minutes of capture and then after about 2 minutes it tells me wireshark is out of memory and is about to close but the capture is automatically saved at that location. Ideally I would like to be able to capture for about 20 minutes at a time
3) How can I preserve vlan tags when capturing ? I already downloaded the intel driver, as well as edited my registry as per intel's intructions but it still strips the vlan tags.
I am running wireshark 1.0.4 latest release downloaded this week on a compaq 8510p laptop with 2gb ram.
Thanks people
