I have seen several issues with Windows programs not releasing (or perhaps
not being able to releaase) the serial ports after using them. Once one of
these programs accesses the serial port, no other programs can use it until
you re-boot. I'm fighting windoze Hypertrm right now over this issue
trying to read from a freq counter for some ADEV measurements. Once
HYPERTRM runs, no other program can access the serial port.
Lady Heather seems to work fine with Wine, but I have not tried it after
running HYPERTRM.
_______________________________________________
Whilst I suspect the problem is more likely to be Wine as multiple programs
show the issue, you could try the PuTTY terminal program instead of the
rather old HyperTerm:

May be better, may not.
