The result turns out to be a bug: If you launch Wireshark with no Admin right, the WSK code fails to init, so Npcap loopback adapter can't be opened. I think you launched Wireshark with no Admin right in both machines. So I have moved WSK init code to Driver start routine and get this issue fixed, please try the latest installer at:

Hi Yang,

I confirm I was starting Wireshark without administrative rights.
I will keep you informed of my results once I have the opportunity to test it.

Cheers,
Pascal.
