Packetbeat not working & showin only one interface

Elastic Stack Beats
1

Hello,

I am attempting to run Packetbeat (8.6.0) on Microsoft Windows 11 (professional 22H2 version, latest).

I have Npcap as part of NMAP installation, which I refreshed today - specially ticking to enable the WinPcap API compatiblity

However, I am only able to see one interface

When I configure to sniff on this traffic, I get an error, and the Packetbeat process dies.

"message":"Exiting: sniffer loop failed: failed to start sniffer: Error opening adapter: The system cannot find the path specified.  (3)","service.name":"packetbeat","ecs.version":"1.6.0"}
Exiting: sniffer loop failed: failed to start sniffer: Error opening adapter: The system cannot find the path specified.  (3)

I don't have multiple copies of Packetbeat on the system. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Packetbeat.

What should be the next step to diganose.
