In the command prompt use
mode
Used without parameters, mode
displays all the controllable attributes of the CON
(console) and the available COM
devices (and LPT
as well).
Accepts /?
switch for basic help:
mode /?
ANSWER 2
Score 30
I know the question has been answered, but this is another method.
In command prompt, use:
chgport
in windows Vista and up. Lists your ports and which device they are.
ANSWER 3
Score 20
In the command prompt use:
C:\>wmic path Win32_SerialPort
In PowerShell, run as administrator:
PS> Get-WMIObject Win32_SerialPort | Select-Object Name,DeviceID,Description
Or, for raw data:
PS> Get-WMIObject Win32_SerialPort
Hope this helps.
ANSWER 4
Score 9
Using mode
most of the time I don't see the devices that are not connected.
I prefer to use this solution with Python:
python -c "import serial.tools.list_ports as ls; print([p.device for p in ls.comports()])"
So I can see anything plugged in even if the connection is closed.
serial.tools.list_ports is from package pyserial.
