My pc just updated with the April update.

I do not have a P3, but comms between my pc and my K3S are still good.
In my case, the K3 Utility runs on COM3 using an FTDI driver.

K3 Utility 1.16.7.25
K3S # 11310, MCU v05.57.
Windows FTDI Driver 8/16/2017, v2.12.28.0

73,

Mark,

This, too, appears relevant:
 
   
https://www.silabs.com/community/interface/forum.topic.html/cp210x_driver_v101-91Gl

It specifically mentions amateur radio gear, though it?s specific to SiLabs 
parts. I?m not sure off the top of my head whether it applies to the USB 
hubs/codecs we use.

A Google search for 

   "com port"  Windows 10 update

turns up numerous complaints about how the latest package has broken comms, 
including USB, BT, parallel ports, etc. All parties claim they?re ?working on 
it."
