I tried:
- Stop and start the agent. That failed with an error message (cant recall what).
- Uninstalled and reinstalled, no luck.

Fing agent needs the Windows libraries which are installed with the WinPcap package during FingDesktop installation, it used to make packet capture and filtering useful our engine to protocol analyzers and network monitors.
Fing agent service cannot work properly without the correct installation of WinPcap.
Please open the command prompt and return the output:
sc query npf
it's useful to understand if the WinPcap has been installed correctly and it is running properly.
If possible please uninstall the older version of WinPcap and install the latest version of Win10Pcap from here and check.
