PL2303 issues (Prolific USB to Serial Drivers) Win 11

I tried the older driver available here:

And this seemed to work for Windows 11. Weird that an old driver works better than the latest one.I have the PL-2303 TA chipset.
Windows 11 update loaded Prolific PL2303 driver 3.8.40.0 and when I go to device manager it says "Please install corresponding PL2303 driver to support Windows 11 and further OS" This driver does not even attempt to communicate with my X10 CM11 hooked to my serial port.

Don't install Windows update for Prolific or it will change it back.
