Description
I cannot install NPCAP on Windows 10 with error Error 0x80070002. I changed the group policy to "Allow administrators to override Device Installation Restriction policies" and it still fails. Always fails at installing NDIS driver/npcap service.
This is a fresh windows install and I previously had it installed and working before reinstalling windows.
These are the logs, I don't see the other ones mentioned in the user's guide
