Wireshark and TShark search various locations for config files, plugins, SNMP MIBS, and RADIUS dictionaries, which vary by platform. To find default locations, use Help › About Wireshark › Folders or tshark -G folders.

This new version of Wireshark 4.0.10 doesn’t bring any new protocol support, updated protocol support, new and updated capture file support, or new file format decoding support.

As for Windows, make sure to use the most recent 3.6 version as there are no official 32-bit Windows packages for Wireshark 4.0+.
