### Escape Sequences on Windows 10
When using the default command line or PowerShell on Windows 10, you may see a message indicating that the console does not support escape sequences, as shown in the above output. To avoid such issues, it is recommended to run the serial monitor under [Windows Terminal](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Terminal), which supports all required escape sequences for the app, unlike the default terminal. The main escape sequence of concern is the Device Status Report (`0x1b[5n`), which is used to check terminal capabilities. Any response to this sequence indicates support. This should not be an issue on Windows 11, where Windows Terminal is the default.
### No USB port appears
On Windows 10, macOS, Linux, USB CDC devices do not require additional drivers to be installed.
