What antivirus software are you using?
BTW.

Line 272 is while (commPort.BytesToRead == 0)

From this code

Code: Select all

				commPort.Write(sendbuffer, 0, 8);
				while (commPort.BytesToRead == 0)
				{
					Thread.Sleep(0);
				}
				commPort.Read(readbuffer, 0, 64);

I just re-tested on 2 other machines, all with clean W10 installs and unfortunately I can't replicate the bug on any of them :-(

One is a brand new Core i7, and the other is a 5 year old Macbook, Core i3 which is now running W10.

BTW.

Did you post your codeplug. I guess there is a chance this is related to a specific codeplug (but I can't see how)

I don't think that's likely to be the problem the cables do not contain any electronics, as most modern transceivers have USB as part of their CPU functionality.
