Windows 10: PORTS (COM & LPT) is not displayed in Windows 10

Hi


PORTS (COM & LPT) is not appearing in my Device Manager in Windows 10. I followed these steps:

1. Connect the USB.
2. Open Device Manager.
3. Click on Action.
4. Select Add legacy hardware.
5. Click on Next.
6. Select Install the hardware that I manually select from a list (Advanced), then click Next.
7. Scroll down, then select Ports (COM & LPT), and then click Next.
8. Select Manufacturer as your need, (in this case, select the standard type or default option), and then click Next.
9. Click Finish.

The problem is what manufacturer AND MODEL should I select? I tried some models but I get an error.


Thank you.

:)

 

Windows 10 & LPT Parallel Printer Port.

Posts on some forums suggest that Microsoft has killed LPT (parallel port) support in Windows 10 whereas another post I saw indicates that Microsoft has fixed this problem due to pressure from businesses that still need parallel support. I am such a
business. I must have LPT support for legacy software and an HP LaserJet 6P for the new computer I'm getting (which does have an LPT port). This is not optional since the old software will not work with USB and new printers. Can anyone definitively tell
me whether LPT/Parallel ports are or are not currently usable in Windows 10 (64-bit)? Thanks for any help.

 

COM and LPT ports in WIN10

This is a Windows 10 question!

On my ACER All-in-one desktop tablet with
WIN 10 installed, I am looking in Device Manager for the com port listing (com-lpt) and can not find it.



[a]"Show Hidden Devices" is checked.

I am unsure as to where to go from here, but I need to add a com port and need to see what has been previously assigned. Are com ports no longer used or displayed in
WIN 10?
