Presumably you meant
https://npcap.com/guide/npcap-devguide.html#npcap-feature-dot11
because
https://npcap.com/guide/npcap-devguide.html#npcap-feature-loopback
is for loopback adapters, not 802.11 adapters, and therefore does not list the wlanhelper
command - that command doesn't apply to the loopback adapter.
ah yeah that's it, I'd just gone to that link and scrolled down, which would be, say you say, the "#npcap-feature-dot11" part,
