Hank,
Installing KX3 Utility will do nothing for changing what your computer
does about COM Ports vs USB port assignment. It is now apparent that
your computer is not properly recognizing the FTDI USB to Serial adapter.
Download and install the FTDI drivers from the FTDI website.
What you are trying to deal with is an FTDI USB to Serial adapter. Just
because the KXUSB cable is sold by Elecraft does not change that fact -
the FTDI chipset is not an Elecraft device, but an FTDI device even
though it is included in the KXUSB.

Reinstalling the KX3 utility software from the Elecraft site did nothing.
How can I check the registry values on the PC to know if that is the cause?

The kx3 gets its inventory of com ports from registry values populated by
complete device driver installation.
