Juan,
I see you have many unrecognized devices. Also check that you don’t have port conflicts.
I have confirmed with Eltima senior technical support that Windows DOES NOT correctly show the port numbers in use. To see the Eltima port numbers you must use the Eltima application which can be downloaded from their website.
You may need to clear up your serial ports as described here: https://helpdesk.flexradio.com/hc/en-...
Once you clean things up on your machine things should then work properly.

I recommend you either ask a friend who is very computer savvy to help or open a help desk ticket with flexradio.1

I've spent several hours messing with SmartCAT and at least have it working on my computer. I'm running SmartSDR v2.5.1.
The Eltima drivers are from some other virtual serial port solution. Are you using another virtual serial port solution, such as VSP Manager? I have found that sometimes different virtual serial port drivers work well together. If the suggestions below don't help, you may want to uninstall your other virtual serial port solution.
The FabulaTech entries are Flex Virtual Serial Ports that have lost their drivers so the computer doesn't know what to do with them.
If you haven't already, uninstall SmartSDR.
Reboot
In the folder: C:Program FilesFlexRadio Systems, there should be a Flex VSP folder. In that folder is an installer: FlexVSPInstaller_64.msi.Right click on that and select install.
Reboot. This should convert the FabulaTech devices to Flex Virtual Serial ports.
In Device Manager, make sure to enable View Hidden Devices. Then right click the Flex Serial Port devices and select uninstall, but DO NOT check remove device driver. Repeat this for each one.
Reboot
Right click on FlexVSPInstaller_64.msi and select uninstall.
Reboot.
Your virtual serial ports should be gone, either as Flex Virtual Serial ports or FabulaTech devices.
If so, try reinstalling SSDR and SmartCAT.
If the devices didn't go away, or if SmartCAT is still flaky (in my case, SmartCAT worked, but I had a pair of Virtual Serial ports in Device manager that didn't show up in SmartCAT).
This involves messing with the registry, so be careful. Don't do it if you don't really understand what is going on. I take no responsibility if you trash your Windows install. Proceed with caution!
Under the registry keyComputerHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServices
locate and delete entries: Ftvspenum, Ftvspksrv, Ftvsport. This is to remove the Virtual Serial Port Kit service, which the Flex uninstallers don't uninstall.
Reboot
In device manger, under System Devices you may see the FabulaTech Virtual Serial Port Bus with an error. Go ahead and delete this device.
In Windows explorer, turn on view hidden files and navigate to
C:Users<User name>AppDataRoamingFlexRadio Systems
Delete the CAT.settings, DAX.settings and SSDR.settings files.
Repeat this for any other users set up on the PC
At this point, hopefully all traces of the Flex VSP are gone.
Try reinstalling SSDR. When I did this, SSDR and SmartDAX worked, but SmartCAT did not. I had to install and uninstall FlexVSPInstaller_64.msi again.
These instructions may be convoluted, but it seemed to work for me. Hopefully, this will give you some ideas.

Hello Mark.
i follow your instructions, and no way, ONLY with the last step works(deleting the CAT.settings, DAX.settings and SSDR.settings files). Now it is ok and working properly with N1MM on remote.
Many thanks for your help.
