Import Custom Low Level Analyzer

.dll

.dylib
(Note: This may appear as a .so file provided by some custom analyzer repositories. If so, please see the "MacOS Errors" section below)
Finally, save the dialog and restart the software. Your custom analyzer should now appear in the list of available protocol analyzers!
If you're running the app on MacOS, you may run into a "Failed to Load Custom Analyzer" error message upon startup when the app attempts to load your

- Click "Select Folder"
