netmon | Network monitor for Linux | TCP library

[After Googling and searching for hours/days, I can't believe such basic task has not an out-of-the-box "hello world".]

On a Windows 7, how to log network statistics? If possible, for a specific IP address. The goal here is to log UDP/TCP bandwidth and errors over several hours.

Already tried a lot of software, but none was working. For example, NetMon has not succedeed to launch a capture, even by launching it as Administrator.

Programming solutions are welcome, especially using C/C++/C#.

I'm working on a UWP app with a feature where other apps could set Discord Rich Presence via an AppServiceConnection. However on most UWP platforms forwarding from the AppServiceConnection to the Offical Client is not an available option. I'm looking to set the Rich Presence directly from the app essentially. Despite a ton of digging through network packets I'm still entirely lost. Anyone know of documentation on it or has some super method to sniff these packets out (Fiddler 4, Netmon and Wireshark aren't cutting it)

I need 3 commands to be run and their (single-line) outputs assigned to 3 different variables, which then I use to write to a file. I want to wait till the variable assignment is complete for all 3 before I echo the variables to the file. I am running these in a loop within a bash script.

This is what I have tried -

I am currently trying to write a simple C# application against SQL Server 2016 to use Microsoft Distributed Transactions (MSDTC). I am trying to get it working on my local machine (Windows 10 Pro) before I attempt to test it on a server across a network.

The .NET solution consists of a console application project and three separate webapi projects. The console application calls each of the webapi projects, where each webapi project then writes a simple record to the database. This seems to work fine. What I would then like to do is to have the third webapi project generate an exception and for all previous records to be rolled back as part of the distributed transaction. However, my problem is that the first two projects are committing their records to the database and not rolling back.

The way that I have set it up (which I believe it correct) is for each project to use System.Transactions to enlist in using DTC.

The console application acts as the Root Transaction Manager and initiates the transactions by performing something similar to:

Picture the scene... I'm on a new PC. I've installed VS15 and SQL Server Express. I've enabled IIS in Windows features. I've pulled my (previously working) ASP.NET MVC project from Git. I press F5 and am pleased to see that the build succeeds, Firefox starts up and things are looking good.

But then, oh no! The debug session ends abruptly. Firefox eventually times out.

I've found IIS errors in event viewer that match the timings of my attempts. They reference error code "8007007E". When I put that into the Err.exe utility (as per this article), I get the following:
