    I am just wondering if anyone is having the same issue I am with NetSerial... I am running V 4.34 64Bit with Windows 10 64Bit... and about 95% of the time after I reboot I have to uninstall and reinstall NetSerial because the VModem won't initialize... Do nothing more than uninstall and reinstall and it starts working again...

    Are you certain you don't have somthing else using the same actual or virtual serial port?

    I have put thought into this... and I have no clue... I have to unistall and reinstall... I don't have to enter the reg-codes because it remembers everything from the prior install... and then it works.

    The only thing I haven't tried to do is use the 32Bit installer

    Perhaps try opening device manager and see if you have anything else listed under your com ports. It sounds like a conflict to me.
