I bought this to connect a Kantronics KPC-3 Plus TNC to a Windows 10 laptop. I had to cut off two small female hex heads on the DB25 side because the KPC-3 Plus does that too has female threaded hex heads, but once installed the DB25 connector remains fairly stable. I had no problems turning it off. I cut them off with a Dremel cutting wheel. Although the cable comes with a driver CD for your PC, Windows 10 doesn't require you to install a driver. Win10 automatically recognizes the device on its own.
