How to recreate FlexVSP COM Ports - Win10

in SmartSDR for Windows
Is there a way to recreate the virtual FlexVSP Com ports on Win10? - Had to reinstall Win10 due some problems with the latest Windows update no being able to install..

The Virtual Serial Port Kit service is running, but now COM's in the device manager. Adding a new COM from the FlexCAT applications throws an error.

What have I tried so far:
- Checking the device manager for ghost/hidden COM
- Repairing FlexVSP
- Uninstall/Reinstall FlexVSP
- Uninstall/Reinstall the whole SmartSDR package
- All the inputs from KB articles regarding VSP
- Hunting for strange entries in the registry

All the pain with Windows just for using VARA/VarAC.. I love my Mac and SmartSDR from Marcus ;)

    Tim from the FlexRadio support was able to solve the problem by manually cleaning up the drivers and registry entries. Thank you!

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
