I tested below and is working well :) When I launch my kitty client from Serial Port Notifier, the window title is renamed with the COM# and Custom Port Name defined in Serial Port Notifier. Code Changes: Launcher.vb: Public Class Launcher Public Sub Launch(serialPort As String, Optional customPortName As String = "") Try Process.Start(Executable, GetCommandLine(serialPort, customPortName)) Catch ex As Exception MessageBox.Show(String.Format("Failed to start launcher: {0}", ex.Message), "Launcher",...

Hello, can you confirm a few things please? Can you confirm that the program is actually running? Launch Task Manager and check that Serial Port Notifier is in the list of running processes. If the program is not running, can you try running it manually? The program will usually be installed in C:\Program Files (x86)\Serial Port Monitor In Windows, go to Settings -> Personalisation -> Taskbar. Scroll down to the Notification area section.

Hi Amr, Thanks for the advice - slightly different with mine - Go to Focus Assist and below that is a list of apps permitted to notify. Add Port Notifier to the list and turn it on - sorted! :) Cheers; Pete

Hello everyone, Sorry for the delay in resolving this ticket. I downloaded a Windows 11 virtual machine and installed Serial Port Notifier and was able to replicate the notification issue. Turns out the problem is due to the "Focus Assist" feature in Windows 10 and 11. In the virtual machine I tested it on, Focus Assist was set to "Priority Only" - this results in the Serial Port Notifier notifications being hidden and accessible only if you click on Notifications area in the bottom right corner....

Can you confirm whether or not the program correctly displays the list of COM ports when you right click on the program icon in the notification area?

Hi Ethan, If you right click on the program icon the notification tray and go into Settings, can you confirm that "Show Notification on Port Changes" is checked? If it is, can you check the user.config file (located in C:\Users\{User Name}\AppData\Local\Helm_PCB\Serial_Port_Monitor.exe_{some random string}\{program version}\user.config) and check the value of the "ShowNotification" setting? It should be set to True.

Hello, I am also having problems on Windows 10. The COM ports are listed correctly but no notifications when I plug in a serial cable connected to a device. All other notifications appear from different apps and notifications are enabled. Kind regards, Ethan

Hello, sorry to hear you're having problems. Can you confirm that the other features of the program work fine, even if it doesn't show any notifications? Does the program correctly identify and list all COM ports when you right click on the program tray icon? Do launchers work fine? Are other third party programs that display notification pop ups able to display them, or is it just Serial Port Notifier?

Hi Zapy! Thanks for the feedback. I've had a think about this, but I'm not sure I'm happy to make that change at the moment. Using left click to open up the context menu is not the expected behaviour in Windows and I may potentially use the left click for something else in the future. However, making the modification yourself is pretty simple - literally just 3 lines of code. Have a look at link here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/5057570/286701
