How to set MTU for "Adapter for loopback capture" device?

Hi

I am working on Windows and need to capture packets from a test app, using
Wireshark, via a loopback device.

I understand that the recommendation is to use the "Adapter for loopback
capture" device (\Device\NPF_Loopback). I am doing this and it works fine.

I now need to test very large packets and to see how my dissector handles
fragmentation.

How can I set the MTU of the "Adapter for loopback capture" device?

Best regards
David
