Deleting Ports in Windows.
The Delete button can be used to discard the entries of ports that have been
removed from the system.
Note. Never try to leave out a serial port number when using the delete button,
because Windows may automatically shift serial port numbers which results in a
mis-match of settings in the Serial Ports Applet (COM1-COM4 only).
