Use the correct ”FTDI” programming cable, they're only about $16 on Amazon from either Baofeng or Btech. The cheaper cables don't have a legitimate FTDI chip and have a separate driver disk which typically contains spyware and usually they don't work half the time anyway...

Hi,
I haven’t used my UV-5R or the old PC used for it’s programming in some time. I decided to download CHIRP to my Windows 10 PC and bring the UV-5R back to life. After connection, CHIRP asks you to fill in the empty box with a port number. I thought it would be something like Com3 or Com4. Nope. I get error message 3, saying no such location. I’m sure this is a newbie issue but I can’t find a solution. Anything to do with Windows 10?
