Hi chaps,
I am looking for software that is able to identify on your Windows system what COM ports are available.
Reason being is that every time you connect an adapter, and it is in a different USB port to what you originally used, will be assigned a different COM number.
e.g. you were using COM8, but when the adapter is re-inserted into another USB port, you could now be on COM9. Unfortunately, sometimes you have to search for it.
In case those of you that answer, why not look in Control Panel, System? Indeed, why not?
I would prefer for some software that can be run to tell you what is currently connected. As in an automated system.
Any ideas?
