Can't receive packets on wireshark. And Both Programmer and Bluetooth Low Energy do not work properly.

[UnknownUser]

The detected device could not be recognized as neither JLink nor BLE could be captured in wireshark, nor could the nRF Connect v3.4.2 - Programmer produce "Unsupported device. device nor Nordic USB device." and I can't write to it anymore. Also, nRF Connect v3.4.2 - Bluetooth Low Energy now gives an error when selecting a device.

How can I get it to work properly?

In Wireshark, it does appear as a capture device.

I'm using Wireshark version is 3.2.6
nRF Connect's version is 3.4.2

I tried to set it up to work in Wireshark by referring to it here.

I'm sorry, but in that case, I don't see why you mention the BLE app in nRFConnect for Desktop.

First off, the nRF52840 Dongle won't be able to function as a BLE sniffer as it is only compatible with the nRF Sniffer for 802.15.4. Please check out the Infocenter page for more information on that sniffer here.

What I assume has happened to your nRF52840 Dongle is that you have accidentally erased the UICR on the Dongle, and will need to recover it. You can follow our Dongle Programming tutorial to see how you can do this.

Thank you. I guess I was under the mistaken impression that it would work with BLE Sniffer. Also what I wanted to know was mentioned in the URL.
I see that every time I use it as an 802.15.4 Sniffer and every time I use it with nRF Conncect, I have to rewrite it.
