VirtualHere doesn't assign com port numbers that is done by windows.

My guess is that the virtualhere client is disconnecting overnight due to some network issue *and* also your Serial Adapter does not have a "Serial number" itself so windows cant uniquely identify it and so assigns a new COM port when the connection is reestablished in the morning. All devices should have a USB "Serial Number" so they can be uniquely identified but some manufactures dont put this setting in.
