For months, I've been running Networx 5.2.8 and then 5.2.9 with WinPCap 4.1.2 rather than the included LAN driver.
Today, I used Backup to save historical data, uninstalled 5.2.9, uninstalled WinPCap, installed 5.2.10 selecting the included LAN driver and restored historical data. Twice, each time about 10 minutes after boot up, the system froze completely with display remaining frozen. Required power to be turned off manually to re-boot.
I then uninstalled 5.2.10, installed WinPCap 4.1.3, installed 5.2.10 without selecting the included LAN driver and again restored historical data. System has been running fine for hours.
I would like to try Networx's application monitoring but understand that this is not possible unless the Networx included LAN driver is used.

I am using the Windows firewall and Avast anti-virus. No other filtering software, other than SoftPerfect WiFi Guard.
I am willing to try again. Would disabling any of those items while installing Networx produce a different result? I would like to continue using them.
If I do try again to use the Networx driver, should I uninstall WinPCap before installing Networx?

It would only affect computer-to-computer sync if you are using it. Otherwise it doesn't matter.
WinPCap and NetWorx's own custom drivers do not conflict. You can have either or both installed.
If however the NetWorx driver still doesn't work, I recommend to stick to WinPCap for the time being.
We routinely update the NetWorx driver and there's a good chance your issue will be fixed in the upcoming release.
