I've had good luck with the prolific drivers I've found on the elecraft
website.
http://www.elecraft.com/K3/k3_software.htm
I had 'real' prolific chips but the win10 drivers Microsoft thought were best
wouldn't work.
I manually selected one of the ones from the elecraft site, and all was good.
The prolific
site said several generations of chips were not supported any more, maybe mine
were
in that group.
