Why is there no interface found on a Windows 10 installation?

0

I tried to capture a trace with Wireshark version 2.0.3 on a Windows 10 desktop computer, but it said there is no interface found. I tried to use control panel to allow it to pass Windows 10 Firewall, it didn't work. I have another installation on a Windows 10 Notebook computer, it didn't have this problem. Any idea? The desktop computer OS is an upgrade from Windows 8.

What does the Help -> About menu show, particularly the "Running ..." bit. Mine shows:
