How to reset Wireshark preferences?

0401

To reset Wireshark preferences, you can follow these steps:

  1. Close Wireshark:
    Ensure that Wireshark is not running before you proceed.

  2. Backup Current Preferences (optional):
    It's a good idea to back up your current preferences in case you want to restore them later. You can do this by renaming the preferences folder:

    mv ~/.config/wireshark ~/.config/wireshark.bak
  3. Delete Preferences:
    To reset the preferences, you can simply delete the configuration folder:

    rm -rf ~/.config/wireshark
  4. Restart Wireshark:
    Open Wireshark again. It will create a new configuration folder with default settings.

By following these steps, you will reset Wireshark to its default preferences. If you encounter any issues after resetting, please let me know!
