OS: Windows 7; I have about 100 Mb of free space on disk C. When I launch capture in Wireshark, this space decreases fast (because of temporary data buffering on hard disk). Through several minutes space is exhausted and capture stops. Can I tell Wireshark to store data to other disk (say, disk D with much free space). Thank You! asked 24 Nov '11, 03:46  Gistereziz edited 24 Nov '11, 10:31  Guy Harris ♦♦ |
One Answer:
Wireshark stores the temporary capture files in the system temp directory. If you could change your system settings to use a temp folder on D: you're good to go. The other solution - if you can't change your system temp path permanently - is, to start Wireshark from a batch file that sets a "temporary" temp path before calling the wireshark executable. answered 24 Nov '11, 04:18  Jasper ♦♦ |
