Codex Windows App Reportedly Has Driver Loading Bug
bdsqlsz · x · 2026-07-16
Someone pointed out a rather severe bug in the Codex Windows App: even when not connected to a Codex Micro, the app might prematurely load the built-in Work Louder/Codex Micro native driver.
The post also mentions a deeper issue: serialport.node lazily imports node.exe!napimoduleregister, but ChatGPT.exe does not export this symbol. The symbol actually resides in chrome.dll.
