I can't figure out how to create and save a profile. I'm using Version 1.6.11 (SVN Rev 45257 from /trunk-1.6) on Windows 7. If I open the Edit:Configuration Profiles menu item the only options are New, Copy, Delete, OK, Apply, and Cancel (no Save button). If I select any of the existing profiles my current preferences (what I'm trying to save) get replaced with ones from the profile I load. New seems to set everything back to defaults. I'm specifically trying to save a default Capture Filter, display column configuration, and Time display format. |
See the Wireshark User's Guide: Thanks. I had already read the UG section on profiles to no avail but your article cleared things up for me. From that I learned that the sequence for me is to create a profile then configure WS the way I want it to behave for that profile. I was going about that backwards, configuring WS first then trying to create/save a new profile. One question remains for me, once I've created a new profile and configured WS is the new configuration updated each time I alter something (e.g. add a display column), or are the profile changes updated at some later time such as when exiting WS or starting a new capture?

The new configuration is updated right away.
