This is usually caused by windows searching for a serial mouse on
startup. See the link below to disable this.
This applies to Win 10 also!

That works but WSJT i.e. can't find the KIO3B com port in my setup
when the K3 is off while powering the computer first. Although the com
port is listed in the device manager. Kinda strange... (Win7 Pro).
That happens both on my desktop and on my notebook.

Doug,
The computer will "exercise" the serial port lines when it goes
through its startup diagnostics.
So if you have the K3 PTT-KEY menu set to anything other than
OFF-OFF, it will key the K3 momentarily.
If you are not using the PTT-KEY function, then turn it off. If you
are using it, the only solution is to either power the computer
before the K3 or put the K3 into TX TEST before powering the computer.
