View Full Version : How to find out which process is using port?

I can't use BitPim or QPST because the port is in use.

If I go into Device Manager to change the com port number, Windows says "This port has been opened by another application. Renaming the port may have an unpredictable effect on the other application. Do you wish to continue?"

That makes me think it's true that the port is busy. Then, if I go into HyperTerminal, I'm able to open the port and communicate with the phone. What gives?

How can I find out which process is using a com port?
