title: COM port numbers change after reboot. Can they be persistent?
body: <p>I have devices with USB ports. I'm running a script which needs port numbers to be hard-coded in it. </p>
  
  <p>The problem is that after my devices reboot, the numbers of COM ports change, and then my script can no longer communicate with the devices.</p>
  
  <p>How can I make my COM port numers persistent, even after reboot? (windows 7)</p>
