About

COM Port Info belongs natively to ComPortMan, but is handy standalone too.

Features:

- Two views with COM ports and connection types (BusTypes)

- "Safely remove hardware"

- Restart devices to revive it after "safe removal" (if started with administrator previleges)

- COM port numbers change and swap (if started with administrator previleges)

- USB-Port reset (XP, Win8, 10, 11)

- Display of the "Port Parameters" (GetCommState), that's how the last application using this port left it behind and on failure it indicates that the port is in use

- Display of the "Default Port Parameters" (GetDefaultCommConfig), these are the parameters from the device manager

- Display of the "Port Properties" (GetCommProperties), these are the capabilities of the COM port hardware, e.g. supported signals and data rates

Coverage is best-effort and depends on a winget package mapping to an NVD CPE entry. Absence here is not a guarantee of safety.
