I purchased the FTDI Cable from Amazon about 3 weeks ago, I plugged it into a USB port on my computer and Windows 10 automatically installed the drivers. After the drivers installed, I left the FTDI cable in the USB port and rebooted my computer. I have not had any problems using the FTDI cable with Chirp or the BaoFeng Programming software since then.</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1455835679858_5464"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1455835679858_5291"><i id="yui_3_16_0_1_1455835679858_6368"><b id="yui_3_16_0_1_1455835679858_6261">Whatever USB port you plugged the FTDI cable into when the drivers were installed, you must continue to plug the FTDI cable into that same USB port for it to work.</b></i><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1455835679858_6367"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1455835679858_6366">If you plug the FTDI into a different USB port then that will create problems.</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1455835679858_5465"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1455835679858_5466">If you don't want to use the Windows 10 drivers, you can go into the Device Manager and uninstall the current drivers.</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1455835679858_5487"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1455835679858_5486">Before you do that, you can go to the FTDI Website and download the D2XX Drivers for Windows 10, they have both the 32 bit and 64 bit versions so you can select the correct one for the version of Windows 10 you are using.
