In my recently built Tshark/Wireshark etc., I've discovered
this longer works:

It says:

But this works:
   tshark.exe -i {3A46ACA0-CBED-44BC-A239-6AEA3D0C451D}

It has been fixed by removing the Win10Pcap installation
and reinstalling the trust old WinPcap. All back to normal.

I had Win10Pcap and WinPcap installed at the same time.
