Windows Terminal Emulator Serial Port
Serial port terminal emulator free download - Advanced Serial Port Terminal, Serial Port Terminal, Serial Port Terminal, and many more programs. Terminal Serial Port for Windows 10.
I often use HyperTerminal in Windows XP. The problem is that it just supports COM and telnet. I know COM Port is very old-fashioned, but I can't replace it with USB because there is no such program for USB.
Is USB bad for connecting computers? Or I just mistaked something?

First, you should use PuTTY instead of Hyperterminal as it's better in pretty much every way.
A terminal will commonly work with the following methods of communication:
- Telnet using TCP/IP
- SSH using TCP/IP
- Serial port using RS-232
The first two require the device you are trying to reach has an IP and supports the protocol in question.The second requires the device be connected to your system via a COM port on Windows.
Now if you are expecting to do a RS-232 style terminal connection over USB, it must be a USB serial port. You can buy RS-232 to USB converters. Some devices have a USB port that implements a RS-232 to USB converter internally. On Windows, for any kind of hardware like this, you'll likely need to install a manufacturer-provided driver - this is probably why you are having trouble. Then, in devmgmt.msc, under Ports, you'll see an extra COM port. You can use this to talk to your device through PuTTY (or Hyperterminal, if you insist.)

Is there any good terminal emulator program which will help me save commands so I dont have to type them again and again . It is for communicating with a serial port (COM port) in windows and I have tried putty and serterm but they dont have this functionality. Do you know of any other free software which can achieve what I want?

the Windows command prompt has a history of commands. Pres F7 to open it:
F7: Shows list of all previous commands from command history
You can press 'F7' key to get a list of all previously executed commands and then you can use Up or Down arrow keys to cycle though them. Press Enter to execute the selected command.
