I have a serial USB adapter that plugs and plays on COM9 or higher on many systems. The third package that I use in my software can only connect to COM8. Is there a way to install COM9 on a lower port using WMI or something else? I know that I can do this in the port settings dialog in the device manager, but for my end users it is easier if I can do it quietly in the software for them.
