STM32F429 - Discovery card Micro Usb COM port not showing in Windows 10!

[BTaşk.1]

I have the STM32F429 Discovery development board. I want to send and receive data from the USB port. I will use Virtual Com Port for this. When I connect the Micro USB port on the card to the computer, it does not appear as a device. I use Keil as the compiler. My operating system is Windows 10.

"data cable is not visible" ? You can't see the cable plugged into the board? I don't know how to parse this, seems like all is working correctly to me.

I installed the drivers that STM gave but it doesn't see micro usb connection in any way.

And what is that virtual COM Port thing in the device manager?​

My problem is that it does not appear as a device when I connect micro usb. The programming cable of the com5 card shown in the picture, mini-b.

You need some software on the STM32F429 to configure the USB port as a serial communication device, and handle requests from the PC.

If there is no software to do that, the USB cable is just a piece of dangling wire as far as the PC can tell.

I installed the driver I mentioned above for this. But the computer does not see the card still connected. What should i do for the computer to see the micro usb connection ?? Is there anyone who can help ?

You have installed a driver on your PC, but apparently there is no driver on the STM32F429.

Try compiling and installing an USB example from STM32CubeF4.

Before seeing your suggestion, I solved my problem by using the example below. Thank you to Mr. Majerle and you.
