title: Trouble locating my serial ports using bash on Windows 10
body: <p>I want to be able to read from serial ports on my computer and write to a file.  Inside /dev (using Bash shell on Windows 10) I can't seem to locate my USB serial ports (I have tty, tty0, tty1, and that's it for tty).</p>
  
  <p>Is it located somewhere else, or even accessible through the bash shell? I just want to be able to know how to access it at this point.</p>
  
  <p>In device manager, COM4 shows up under ports when I plug in my USB. I also ran the command <code>wmic path Win32_SerialPort</code> in the Windows command prompt and it said "No Instance(s) Available." So I'm very confused as to how I can view my Serial Ports and why they aren't showing up in certain instances. </p>
  
  <p>Any clarification on how serial ports work, especially with USB, would be greatly appreciated, as I am pretty new with this stuff.</p>
