HyperTerminal is a program that you can use to connect to other computers, Telnet sites, bulletin board systems (BBSs), online services, and host computers, using either your modem, a null modem cable or Ethernet connection.
But My main usage of Hyperterminal is to communicate with hardware through local (virtual )COM ports. I suppose it is removed in Vista for some reason.
Are there any other tools that functions similar to Hyperterminal?
[I am curious to know even if it is not for vista]

Advanced Serial Port Terminal. Serial Port Terminal is a HyperTerminal replacement that offers more flexibility and enhanced functionality in a terminal application. It is a software application that serves as a HyperTerminal alternative for Windows 10 as well as other versions of the operating system.
Microsoft phased out HyperTerminal, and it has not been included in a Windows OS since Windows XP and is not a part of Windows 10.
PuTTY can replace HyperTerminal for serial communications. It provides logging, a large scroll back buffer, and many other features. You are probably already using PuTTY for SSH and Telnet, but you can also use it for Serial TTY console connections.
PuTTY can do serial communication nowdays.
