This situation is as follows:
I opened Wireshark to view a trace and left it running, while it displays the
main packet list page. Some time later the underlying trace file become
unavailable (actually due to the file being touched while on an SMB share).
Then this happens:
When clicking on one of the particular packets, a dialog box with the following
error arises:
An error occured while reading from the file [blah blah]: Less data was read
than was expected.
The box contains an "ok" button and the normal Windows controls in the upper
right corner.
Problems: The ok button doesn't do anything. Neither do any of the window
controls in the upper right of the window border. The Wireshark app itself is
waiting for some action to happen on the dialog box. So basically, the entire
application is stuck until the window is killed in some other way. This can be
done using "close" from task bar, but isn't convenient.
