wire shark initiates and hangs. task manager says not responding

I've installed latest version of Wireshark on a Windows 8.1 laptop. Install went smoothly and could open Wireshark GUI, but after a few days, it now just starts and hangs at "loading configuration files." Task Manager says app not responding.

Try to move the configuration file out of the way and see how far it gets when launched. Maybe there's something in your config file that it does not like any more. If you keep the old file you can compare it against the new one and find out what it was.
