[WT-support] Problems after Update to Version 4.50

[Kazunori Watanabe]

Hello Michael and Laurent, 

I have same problem so uninstall 4.50 then back to 4.49
Same as Michael described, my laptop PC is not always connected to USB-Serial devices so click error window default button on middle “disable it for this session” then Win-Test crashes. 

Both Windows 10 Home and Windows 11 Home edition.

>> If there is no radio connected to the COM6 (that can't be opened apparently), better disable it (totally, if it doesn't exist at all - check the device manager). If the COM6 still exists, but is not used, just disable its use in the interface setup dialog before opening the log.
