This is where you can get Hyper Terminal for Windows 10. There is even a version that supports scripting:

It was a long time ago, but I just remembered that I didn't use the hyperterminal program in XP. I don't know how easy it was to use but I started out using the Hyperterminal in Windows 95 and 98, which are very different in terms of interface. I seem to recall that Hyperterminal in XP is a command line program and I didn't want to fool around with it since the Windows 95 and 98 version was so easy to use, having a Windows interface. So the forum discussion I provided may not be useful. There was some sort of security problem with the Windows 95/98 hyperterminal but it doesn't matter for how you are going to use it. I placed the Windows 95/98 program on my XP machine and used it but I don't know if it runs in Windows 7 and higher.

I used to use it in XP for transfering files from a Braille 'N Speak but I don't know how the program may have changed since then.

Someone on a Facebook group acquired a used Blazie Engineering Type 'n Speak and was asking about what could be used to facilitate file transfers to and from the device. Aside from Blazie's proprietary software many of us used terminal programs such as Procomm, Telix and Commo but these likely wouldn't be reasonable options in a Windows 10 environment. I was hoping to find an accessible terminal program to recommend to her. If I feel motivated to do it I may fire up my Bns or Braille Lite to see if Terraterm can communicate with it.
