Thanks Xiaofan for your reply. Just to double check I understand you correctly: 1. It is still the case now (i.e., Virtual Serial Port is not available when using libFTDI driver). 2. I should try UsbDk driver (https://github.com/daynix/UsbDk), as it may support Virtual Serial Port. Are you suggesting to use UsbDk driver ( https://github.com/daynix/UsbDk) to replace libFTDI driver, or alongside it?
