Yes, PortableApps version 1.8.5.I'm also wondering why Wireshark would look for this directory every time a capture is started or restarted, rather than when Wireshark is launched, shut down, or a preference is changed. Those seem like the logical times to read or write preferences, not when a capture is started.
