what is the meaning the error

" isn't a capture file in a format Wireshark understands."

It means you've told Wireshark to read a file that either

	1) is not a file of a type that Wireshark understands as a capture file

or

2) was a file of a type Wireshark understands, but that got somehow damaged.

Where did you get that file from?
