What make a file executable?

This depends upon the operating system. In Windows, the operating system determines if a file is executable by the file extension. There are three windows executable file extensions that I know of: .exe, .com and .scr .com is the simplest executable file: it's contents are simply copied into memory and execution begins at the beginning of the file in memory. Because of this simplicity, .com files may be no larger than a little under 64KiB, and they can only be loaded into memory at address 0x0100. .exe files are more complicated: they are split up into multiple segments. The file contains a header, several tables, a .text section which contains the actual executable instructions, a .data section which contains any static or global data, and more. If the file does not match a specific structure, then the operating system will refuse to execute the file. Thus, in Windows, in order for a file to be executable, it must have the proper file extension, and it must match a specific format for that file extension.

Where is the location of the COM port?

Your computer might not necessarily have a com port at all. A com port is just an older style serial port. USB ports have replaced com ports for the most part. If you have any com ports, they would be on the back of the computer. They would be male (pins sticking out), and have 9 or 25 pins. If there is a 25-pin female D-socket, that would be a parallel port.
