Nope. Those may be hard to fix - and it's not clear whether Microsoft will
continue to support the "Native 802.11" mechanism, or what it's called, upon
which the monitor-mode capture depends. I think they've dropped support for
it, so I don't know how well this works in Windows 10 or, if it currently
works, whether it will continue to work.
Wi-Fi driver writers for Windows didn't do a very good job of supporting
monitor mode; see, for example:

so monitor mode captures on Windows are probably never going to be as good as
one might like.
