How to recreate FlexVSP COM Ports - Win10

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 ;)
