This signature is for the text that immediately precedes it, not for any of the 
distribution files. That is, SIGNATURES-3.2.2.txt is a self-contained PGP/GPG 
clearsigned text document as described at 
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4880#section-7. I've never used Kleopatra, but 
it looks like you can verify SIGNATURES-3.2.2.txt by opening it via "File → 
Decrypt/Verify Files...". From there you can compare the 
Wireshark-win64-3.2.2.exe hash values with the file you downloaded. You can 
also check to make sure various packaging systems are using official 
installers, e.g.

https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/blob/master/Casks/wireshark.rb
https://chocolatey.org/packages/wireshark#files


However, there's an easier way to verify Wireshark on Windows. Right-click on 
the installer, select "Properties", and make sure it's signed by "Wireshark 
Foundation, Inc.". You can also do this on the command line using `signtool 
verify` if it's available.
