Wireshark · Wireshark-users: Re: [Wireshark-users] [Wireshark-dev] [Wireshark-announce] Wireshark 2.2.0 is now available

Hi Jasey,

2016-09-12 22:58 GMT+02:00 Jasey DePriest <jrdepriest@xxxxxxxxx>:

Wireshark 2.2.0 will not run on my Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit laptop.

Version 2.0.6 runs fine, but 2.2.0 starts to load and hangs at the "loading tap" message. I have to kill the process.

I'm attaching a screenshot of the Event generated in the Event Log.

Presumably this is the same issue as the one discussed here:
https://ask.wireshark.org/questions/55394/wireshark-220-freezes-during-first-start-after-each-reboot

and here:
https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12845

Uninstalling USBPcap (if you use it) or removing your proprietary extcap tool (if any) should allow Wireshark to start.

Regards,

Pascal.
