Vixen controlling LOR problem

[jchuchla]

There's a tech note from FTDI on how to install their drivers for windows 10. One step I forgot above is to right click on the driver package and install as administrator.

It just occurred to me that one thing that's probably different between us and you is that we likely have UAC disabled on our machines (developers usually disable UAC). You probably have it still enabled. Perhaps it's getting in the way? Maybe try running vixen as administrator and see if it can then open the port? Or try at least temporarily disabling UAC (then reboot) and try vixen again to see if it can access the port.

I have UAC disabled and I did run the installer as administrator. I tried a restart after uninstall and install of driver package and run Vixen as admin but still error. I to am a C# developer, but my world is web applications, not so much drivers. And I do use and have teamviewer installed.

Kinda surprising, but I can't seem to find an FTDI device here at my office. I want to do some tinkering on this end to see what I can have you test on your end.

I think I have an idea. What is the exact name (case sensitive) of the device in your device manager. Is it "USB Serial Converter"?

[davislights]

Correct, it is "USB Serial Converter"

I'll be looking into it.
