unable to upload to arduino uno after changing port number

I recently changed my port number for the arduino USB from COM8 (what it came with) to COM256 (attempting to see if that will work) but whenever I try to upload it gives 'avrdude: ser_open(): can't open device "\.\COM256": The system cannot find the file specified.' Is there a way to fix this or do I reset to port number back to 8
