Mark,

Are you using the USB interface on the K3S, or a USB to serial adapter to connect to the K3?

If that is the case, did the assigned COM port get changed with the Windows 10 Update? Some have reported it has happened to them.

To check the COM port that is assigned, open Device Manager and expand the PORTS listing. Then unplug the USB connector and see which COM port goes away - now plug it back in and observe which COM port is assigned.

Plug that COM port into K3 Utility or any other application that you are using to communicate with the K3.

If you don't see a COM port assigned, then suspect the USB to serial adapter - reload its drivers to see if that fixes it.

Wayne,

No I cannot. The command tester tab and terminal tab are grayed out.

Can you communicate with the K3 using a simple terminal server? E.g., send 
“FA;” and see if you get the VFO A frequency in response.

That would demonstrate that the port and driver are working.
