Npcap 0.93 [2017-07-27]

  • Move the driver's Service Registry values from the HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\npcap key to the Parameters subkey. Applying Windows upgrades such as Windows 10 Creators Update deletes nonstandard values from the service key; the Parameters subkey is where these should be stored instead.

  • Prevent the installer/uninstaller from crashing when faced with an incomplete Npcap installation, such as that created by applying a Windows version upgrade. Safely distinguish between old WinPcap installations and broken Npcap-in-WinPcap-API-mode installations. Fixes #906

Npcap 0.92 [2017-06-12]

  • Force overwrite of files in installer, since uninstallers from versions 0.78r5 through 0.81 do not remove npcap.sys, leading to mismatched driver vs DLL versions.

  • New installer commandline option to skip setting a restore point: /disable_restore_point=yes

Npcap 0.91 [2017-06-06]

  • Fix WiFi interruption with certain hardware. This is a regression introduced in Npcap 0.90, which had optimistically removed the fix from 0.10-r15.

Npcap 0.90 [2017-05-26]

  • Fix BSOD introduced in 0.85; Locking while being cleaned up is bad.

  • Fix WiFi interruption on Windows 7 in some circumstances, as demonstrated by inability to connect when Kaspersky Internet Security is installed.

Npcap 0.86 [2017-04-12]

  • Fix BSOD introduced in 0.85; wrong driver build had been packaged. Fixes #840

Npcap 0.85 [2017-04-10]

  • Fix BSOD by reverting to simpler pre-0.82 data structures but retaining the spinlock improvement that was the core of that fix.

Npcap 0.84 [2017-03-28]

  • Fix a failure of 64-bit Npcap when installed in Admin-Only mode. #814

Npcap 0.83 [2017-03-04]

  • Fix a crash caused by recieving loopback traffic after Windows starts to sleep. #721

  • Don't override CLI installer options like /wpcap_mode when WinPcap is found. #717

  • Restore the uninstaller instruction that deletes the npcap driver files.

Npcap 0.82 [2017-02-23]

  • Fix a crash that happened when many concurrent processes were using Npcap. If several of these quit during processing of a packet, the linked list of processes could become corrupted. Solved this by using a fixed array with copy-and-swap instead.

Npcap 0.81 [2017-02-16]

  • Moved distribution of executable installer to http://npcap.org/ from Github.

  • Write log files in UTF-8 encoding to preserve localized error messages.

  • Report human-readable error when LWF filter fails to be installed.

  • Add *NdisDeviceType=1 key to registry for Loopback adapter. Fixes #653

Npcap 0.80 [2017-01-09]

  • Signed the uninstaller executable.

  • Removed the legacy code supporting Windows XP and earlier.

  • Added this CHANGELOG

  • Fixed a few null pointer dereferences that may have led to Blue Screens under some scenarios.

  • Restored changes from 0.78 r2 through 0.78 r4 that were accidentally omitted from 0.78 r5.

Npcap 0.78 r5 [2016-12-15]

  • Microsoft Attestation-signed drivers for Windows 10, required in Win10 1607. See #492

  • Removed Windows XP support from the executable installer. XP users can use WinPcap instead, as that is all that we were installing on that platform.

Npcap 0.78 r4 [2016-12-10]

  • Fixed the bug that "Npcap Loopback Adapter" can't be uninstalled.

Npcap 0.78 r3 [2016-12-10]

  • The uninstaller allows users to terminate processes that are using Npcap.

Npcap 0.78 r2 [2016-12-03]

  • The uninstaller lists the processes that are currently using Npcap, preventing a clean uninstall.

Npcap 0.78 [2016-11-23]

  • The uninstaller warns when it is unable to delete DLLs that are in use by applications.

Npcap 0.11 [2016-11-21]

  • Updated the WDK from 10.0.10586 to 10.0.14393.

Npcap 0.10 r18 [2016-11-08]

  • Improved the error message of invalid adapter name in WlanHelper.

Npcap 0.10 r17 [2016-11-07]

  • Built WlanHelper.exe in Unicode instead of Multi-Byte. This will fix the wrong display of non-English characters.

Npcap 0.10 r16 [2016-11-07]

  • Fixed the bug that some functions of WlanHelper.exe doesn't work.

Npcap 0.10 r15 [2016-11-05]

  • Fixed the bug that using Npcap to capture at the first time causes limited connectivity on Wi-Fi adapters.

Npcap 0.10 r14 [2016-11-03]

  • Fixed the bug that Npcap mode and WinPcap compatible mode can't use the loopback interface at the same time.

Npcap 0.10 r13 [2016-11-01]

  • Added the /sign_mode option for installer to choose to install SHA1-signed or SHA2-signed drivers.

Npcap 0.10 r12 [2016-10-25]

  • Fixed the issue that Nping shows both protocol unreachable and successful replies for "nping ".

Npcap 0.10 r11 [2016-10-24]

  • Fixed the issue that Nping shows both protocol unreachable and successful replies for "nping 127.0.0.1".

Npcap 0.10 r10 [2016-10-23]

  • The uninstaller will not show the finish page if run with "/Q".

Npcap 0.10 r9 [2016-10-17]

  • Fixed the BSoD that happens when the OS sleeps after using Npcap Loopback Adapter.

Npcap 0.10 r8 [2016-10-16]

  • Improved the error messages of WlanHelper.exe.

Npcap 0.10 r7 [2016-10-08]

  • Raw 802.11 capture is provided without re-installing the driver!

Npcap 0.10 r6 [2016-10-04]

  • Fixed the BSoD that NPF_RemoveFromGroupOpenArray() referenced the freed group head.

Npcap 0.10 r5 [2016-10-03]

  • Fixed the "PAGE FAULT IN NONPAGED AREA" BSoD about the group adapter removal reported by Pavel.

Npcap 0.10 r4 [2016-10-02]

  • Fixed some BSoDs that causes the system to halt.

Npcap 0.10 r3 [2016-10-02]

  • Now NPFInstall debug traces will be logged into C:\Program Files\Npcap\NPFInstall.log

Npcap 0.10 r2 [2016-09-21]

  • Fixed the BSoD that NPF_TapEx() accessed the CPU buffer of the OPEN_INSTANCE that was released.

Npcap 0.10 [2016-09-20]

  • Fixed the bug that PacketGetNetType() doesn't return the correct DLT_NULL value on Nmap.
