Change where Wireshark stores profiles
My windows %HOME% folder is on a network drive which is not always available, so Wireshark cannot find my profiles, and hangs. I cannot fix %HOME% (not under my control), so I want to point Wireshark at another folder, e.g. c:\Users\Username
But I cannot find a menu in Wireshark that does this, probably because it would staore my choice in %HOME%, catch 22.
I cannot find something in the Windows Registry (with regedit) (oddly enough I am allowed to do this).
How can I configure Wireshark to use a different folder?
