Title: Wireshark failed to start
Post by: aapolon on March 11, 2019, 08:26:33 AM
I installed Wireshark into TC v.10.0, but it is failed to start.

TC v.7.2 is the latest version which can run Wireshark. All later versions failed to run Wireshark.

Hi aapolon
If you open a terminal and enter  wireshark , do you get any warning or error messages?
