Capturing packet captures live

0

Is it possible to capture packets live and store it into a pcap file then converting pcap to a windows txt file using tshark or windows shell scripting?

tshark -i your_interface -V > your_path_to_text_file will write the text output directly to a file.

To write the output to a pcap file and a text file at the same time:
$ tshark -i your_interface -xV -w test1804.pcap > test1804txt
