Yeah of course if another program is trying to access the device it can explain the error but i would not be able to get the port a either, since the device is used with another app, and i tryed it on few different computers and still get the same error
I was just guessing. The FT2232H has two separate USB interfaces, but maybe it's impossible to block one interface without the other, idk.
It's only on the port B, I already submitted this error a year aggo or more but wasn't patched
It's working fine on ArchLinux here (see attached log). I don't have access to a Windows installation and no intend to fix anything there. It's possible that you ask for something that only you are interested in. I guess you have to fix it by yourself then.

I got it to work
it was the dll, the problem happens when you use libftdi 0.18 or 0.20, other channels don't work. i used the latest libftdi1 1.3 & libusb 1.0.20 (libftdi1-1.3git_devkit_mingw32_13Dec2015) from here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/picusb/files/, using the link provided on flashrom windows compile page (https://code.google.com/archive/p/picusb/downloads), if i take libftdi1 1.0 i get an error with the file ftdi.h when i compile flashrom but libftdi1-1.3 works perfectly Simply extract the folders bin, include & lib into you mingw and msys and compile should work fine
As for the drivers, you don't need anymore libusb-win32 wizard and also you don't need unsigned driver installation option enabled on your windows, Just download zadig from the libusb driver installation part on: https://github.com/libusb/libusb/wiki/Windows, plug you ftdi board to the computer, run zadig, go to options "show all devices", then select your ftdi rs232 interface and chose WinUSB (not libusb!) as target driver and repeate for all of the interface you have depending how to amout of channels the ftdi has.
Voila everything should work fine
Maybe you want to update that in the instructions for to compile flashrom for windows,
Thanks for pointing the right direction nico
Regards
