FTDI D2XX Driver not working on Windows 11 ARM with M3 Pro Mac

Hi,
I can't connect to a USB device using FTDI hardware on an Apple MacBook Pro with M3 Pro processor.
This is my scenario:

• Apple MacBook Pro with M3 Pro chip
• macOS Sonoma 14.4.1
• Parallels Desktop 19 for Mac Pro Edition 19.3.1
• Parallels ARM Virtual Machine Running Windows 11 Pro ARM 23H2
• FTDI D2XX driver v2.12.36.4A for Windows 11 ARM, manually installed as per instructions
• ECUMASTER EMU Black client software v2.169
• ECUMASTER EMU Black USB device

USB device with FTDI chip shows up in device manager correctly as USB Serial Converter and USB Serial Port (COM3) and in the Bluetooth and devices overview under Other devices as ECUMASTER EMU BLACK but will not connect with client software (see attached screenshot).
There are users with the same scenario and an Apple M1 host where this works, my M3 does not.
I used to work with an Intel i9 MacBook Pro and Windows 11 before without any trouble.
Any ideas?

 

I'm having a similar issue trying to get the GM vehicle diagnostic USB interface to connect to Diagnostic software in Windows 11 ARM. It shows up as com port which it not a com port device.

 

I have the same Problem on my MacBook Pro M3 and hopefully somebody know a solution

 

I found a solution:
1. Go to CP210x USB to UART Bridge VCP Drivers - Silicon Labs
>
CP210x Universal Windows Driver v11.3.0 8/9/2024
2. Install the drivers first (see Screenshot)

 

I have exactly the same situation. I need to use windows software to program various things from Teensys to motor controllers. All use USB based connections. I have an M3 macbook and parallels 20 running windows 11. I have not been able to get a single USB connection to work. I now see this is a common problem.
