Installer, debug symbols, and SDK available from https://npcap.org/#download

  • Increase strictness in checking for and restoring adapter parameters modified during capture:
    hardware packet filter and lookahead will only be modified if the original value can be
    determined. This fixes issues with connectivity on certain adapter types (WWAN and some WiFi
    adapters) after a capture is closed.

  • Modify NDIS binding parameters so that Npcap will bind both above and below a NIC teaming or
    network bridge IM driver. This may improve capture options in related situations, like #115.

  • Updated build configurations to enable DEP and ASLR for npcap.sys, which were missing from the
    original configs inherited from WinPcap. Additionally, enabled Control Flow Guard for Packet.dll
    and all helper EXEs.

  • Fix a BSoD issue on Windows 8.1 due to registering a service without a name. Fixes #565.

  • Fix an issue with admin-only mode where high-integrity processes (UAC not enforced) could not open
    or list adapters. Fixes #606.

  • Restored an undocumented data member of the struct ADAPTER that is not used internally. Directly
    accessing members of the ADAPTER struct from Packet32.h is highly discouraged, since the
    API in Packet32.h is not intended for use apart from libpcap. Closes #609.

  • Extensive refactoring of driver code for performance and maintainability.
