Probably, but until a couple of years ago I still had an external modem that I used for faxing things as the medical profession (until fairly recently) didn't like sending/receiving patient info by email. They still don't, but will accept thing through their web portals. Anyway, in the long run, it was more practical to install the dedicated com port as it was a permanent part of my system.

Sadly, some smoke escaped from it one day and I've had a hell of a time finding a replacement. As I refuse to run Windoze, most of the internal modem cards (as well as many USB ones) are less than useless to me.

Easier to use a USB-to-Serial cable, unless the program you are using it with expects COM ports 1-4. If your PuTTY doesn’t have the serial option, is it the last version, downloaded from the original PuTTY website? Or was it a possibly recompiled version included in another software bundle?

I have used Win7,10,11 with PuTTY and a USB-to-Serial cable with no problems.

I just looked at the Putty installed on my Win10 computer and I didn't
see "serial" as an option anywhere.
On the other hand, the Win10 computer doesn't have any serial ports
either. I'll check the copy on my 20 year old 98SE/XP computer, the most
modern working computer I have with a serial port.
