[Elecraft] Win4K3 - Virtual COM Ports on Windows 10

[David Woolley]

Having been involved on the periphery of other software certification 
processes, I suspect that getting a driver Microsoft approved is an 
expensive process, both in terms of fees to Microsoft, and internal 
staff time.

I think it is unlikely that you will get an approved driver which is not 
backed by large hardware sales to fund this process.

Any approval is likely to be for a single version, not for the open 
source project as a whole.
