Python Forum

I'm very new to python and I haven't gotten very far with my code but below is what I have so far

import serial.tools.list_ports as port_list


ports = list(port_list.comports())
for p in ports:
    print (p)

this gives me the list of com ports that are active but I have com ports that are being installed but nothing is using it

Does anyone have any idea how I can return all com ports that are installed but not used.

see if this helps: https://stackoverflow.com/a/14224477
