    Freescan: Error while downloading data from Uniden Scanner onto FreeSCAN

    Hey y'all, So I boot up FreeSCAN, plug my scanner in, switch the COM port to the correct one on the download page, and it says that the COM port access is denied. This is the first time this has happened. Is there a driver update? Any idea how to fix?
