I tried to add g_serial to the Micro USB port. But unfortunately I could not achieve automatic detection of the connected device.
As far as I understand, there is no need for drivers for Windows 10.
But when connecting a device via Micro USB to a computer on windows 10, the device is not detected in any way.
As I understand, the module is already in the system, and there is no need to rebuild the kernel. It is already loaded automatically at startup.
What am I missing?

I'd suspect Windows and hunt what's wrong there!!

If you are using the Olimex images the A64-OLinuXino board should be detected by Windows 10 via micro USB cable. It should be listed under Ports (COM & LPT) where it would be given COM#.

It is important to notice that you still need 5V power supply applied to the power jack, you can't power the board sufficiently via the micro USB.

My be there is way to install driver//

Well, if nothing pops up in Windows Device Manager, then how would you install a driver? Even if it needs driver - it should pop as unrecogznied device in Windows Device Manager. If it doesn't - there is some other problem.

Can be cable or port, try all USB ports, try different cable. It can also be incorrect Linux image. Make sure to test with the bionic base image from here:

Give it some time to boot and establish connection, since the USB service is started after the kernel starts.

Here you can see how it looks here, I haven't installed any driver manually (but maybe it was automatically installed):
