Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

First time I plugged pico usb version and usb to ttl converter into win 11 laptop and no com port but showed in device manager. said driver not installed.
had to go to silicon labs and download cp21x universal windows driver.
now shows as silicon labs cp210x usb to uart bridge com 3 and pico detected.
never had this with win 10. maybe it's win 11 from iso

As every installation of W11 appears to be a little different I don't know if this will work:-

Right click on the installation .exe file and examine the pop-up list.
If "Run as Administrator" is there click that and see if that gives you an option to override the security warning.

More information needed.
A screenshot of whatever appears when you try to install would be nice.

There are some deliberately nobbled W11 which restricts you to apps in the MS store. If that's the case, You can upgrade W11 to a real version or live without MMEdit.

What happens when you click on:-

Change my app recommendation settings >

My guess is that will give you the option to install other apps.

I abandoned Windows years ago, so sorry I can't comment about FTDI there.  Linux supported FTDI & so many others without any hassle.
