Hello,

I develop drivers for USB devices that expose network interface.
Often after I install a new device or update the driver and launch WireShark it
fails to detect the device.

If I uninstall WireShark and then install it again it detects the device
correctly.

I am new to WireShark.

If there is any kind of log that you would like me to add let me know where to
get it from and I will attach it.

Regards,
Gur
