Score another point for Linux  - it does not care if the chip in your cable is a fake Prolific, it just works anyway! There is also a driver available for Mac that can handle the fake Prolific chips. It seems only Windows has this problem.

Your radio might not be programmable by CHIRP because you have a fake Prolific chip on your cable. Have you checked that out?

You might also consider that you have a fake radio. I eventually
discovered that I have one. It works but the radio is not programmable

I couldn't believe that there would be such a thing as a fake copy of a
Chinese radio. Is that Kama?
