Hello
I work in a hotel and use a program to make electronic card door keys.
This program requires com ports for its operation.
I discovered that Ports (Com & LPT) was missing from Device Manager -therefore the card program will not work.
I used “Add Legacy Hardware” using the setting “install the hardware that I manually select from a list (Advanced)*
Ports (Com & LPT) is now visible in device manager displaying “Communications Port (COM 3) with a yellow error icon.
Properties displays the message “This device cannot start. (Code 10). A device which does not exist was specified.”.
What do I do next to rectify the problem ?
For obvious reasons I desperately need a quick solution.
Regards
Eflynne
