Windows 10 and CH340. Using Arduino Installation & Troubleshooting. 1khenegar April 29, 2016, 12:14am #1. OK, Ive tried tried everything suggested here and everywhere else. I cannot get windows 10 to recognize the USB port with the CH340 clones. Reinstalled FTDI drivers and then tried to go back to the CH341SER drivers but I keep getting the. Download the setup file for wch.cn USB-SERIAL CH340 driver from the link below. This download link is for the driver version 3.4.2014.08 dated 2014-08-08.

Due to some reasons I had to run Windows XP on Virtualbox. After connected my classic pretty blue usb/serial cable converter, I found out that, as usual, Windows couldn’t recognize it. I wasted lot of time to find the appropriate working driver.
The converter is identified as
ID 4348:5523 WinChipHead USB->RS 232 adapter with Prolifec PL 2303 chipset
Factory website: http://wch-ic.com/
Chip page: http://wch-ic.com/product/usb/ch340.asp
I don’t have the time to investigate because lsusb reports that it mounts the chip PL2303 while Windows XP identifies it as USB-SERIAL CH340, but I guess this is due for some “cloning” reasons.
Anyway here are the most updated windows drivers I could find:
32 bit: ch341_hl-340_windows_drivers_32bit
Usb Serial Ch340 Driver Windows 7
64 bit: usb_serial_converter_ch340_windows_x64_drivers
Usb Serial Ch340 Driver Mac
Hope it helps.
