Re: [chirp_devel] [PATCH 0 of 1 ] Damned windows and it's "no com port"

I don't see where this does anything differently under my Windows 7 than it did before you got started on this quest. If I unplug my programming cable and then launch CHIRP, when I go to Radio => Download From Radio, CHIRP still shows and lists the COM port that was available before the cable was removed. If I continue, I do get a "could not open COMx: [Error 2] The system could not find the file specified". Was this your goal?

I think the only difference is if you're a "first run" case.

Go move your chirp.config away from the normal place and re-run. Hopefully you end up with an empty dialog with this patch. Without it, you got no dialog at all, which confused people.
