Try running Chirp as administrator.  Also, check the device manager and see if the software driver is registered under PORTS(COM & LPT).  When you run Chirp it has to be set to match what is in the PORTS device manager settings.

The #1 cause is an incompatible device driver is installed for the
chip in the programming cable. Which chip is in your programming cable
(check Device Manager)? If it is detected as a Prolific type chip, you
must download, install and select the older, but compatible, Prolific
v3.2.0.0 device driver.

The #2 cause is a poor connection between the 2-pin plug of the
programming cable and the socket of the radio. Some users have had to
press on the plug during the cloning process.
