Try using the latest chip driver for the USB-RS485 from this page for windows 10.

Check if the USB-RS485 cable is actually working, it may just be the Quick Start cannot determine the status of the driver (Which can sometime happen due to security settings, especially if you have just installed the software and the Quick Start has been launched by the installer).
If the USB RS485 does not work then try installing the latest driver, its the VCP (Virtual COM port) driver you need - http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm
