I mean, you must run a process with elevated privileges in order to enable/disable devices with it (unless you are using windows xp).enkryptor– enkryptor2015-10-04 10:24:15 +00:00Commented Oct 4, 2015 at 10:24

What do you mean "are not working"? You get UnauthorizedAccessException if the problem is the access right. Could it be you're just specifying a wrong GUID?enkryptor– enkryptor2015-10-05 06:05:23 +00:00Commented Oct 5, 2015 at 6:05

This question is virtually a duplicate - Win32 API function to programmatically enable/disable device
"mouseGuid" might be pasted from there. I suppose you're specifying a wrong GUID for the COM port. You can see the correct one in the Device Manager, Details tab -> choose "Class Guid" from the dropdown menu.
Having troubles messing with WinAPI, you can use a library (e.g. Hardware Helper) or an external tool (DevCon).
