According to the Qt supported platforms page [1], Vista isn't supported for Qt 5.8. You have to go back to Qt 5.6 for that, hence the note on the Wireshark lifecycle page that 2.2 is the last version to support Vista as that is built with Qt 5.6 [1]: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/supported-platforms-and-configurations.html [2]: https://wiki.wireshark.org/Development/LifeCycle > > First, I had to install the VS 2015 redistributable to fix the > msvcp140.dll missing issue.
