Different Adapter Listing compared to WinPCap / NpCap #27

Description

@powelllens

on the search for an alternative to winpcap i came across win10pcap, installation works and the driver is also displayed in my network card. But an attempt to connect to Wireshark fails like if no WinPcap compatible software is installed. For my special application i use the command:

int pcap_findalldevs(pcap_if_t **, char *);

In the direct comparison with WinPcap and Npcap my existing devices are listed differently:

Npcap/WinPcap:

adapter 0
\Device\NPF_{XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX}
Intel(R) Ethernet Connection (3) I218-LM

Win10Pcap:

adapter 0
{XXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXXXX}
Intel(R) Ethernet Connection (3) I218-LM

Am I missing something during installation?

Any access to the device with Win10Pcap fails. I have no connection with the comparable drivers Npcap & WinPcap.
