    Hello, kindly refer to this KB article and check the compatibility between the application and M1 Mac.

    Hello,
    Thank you for contacting Parallels Support.
    The WinPcap project has ceased development and WinPcap and WinDump are no longer maintained and supported by newer version of operating system. (https://www.winpcap.org/install/)
    WinPcap Team have recommended to use Npcap instead.
    Let us know if you have another query
    Thanks

    Thank you for your reply @Avinash Bundhoo , unfortunately, Npcap also does not work, as I already have that installed on my parallels partition, yet, Wireshark requested for WinpCap.
    Can you replicate a similar environment in your lab? Maybe try to deploy parallels in an M1 Pro chip and afterwards install Wireshark and see if this error comes up at your side.
