One question about this, do you have to purchase the Windows extended license version to get the programming features?

I believe you do have to get a license but they offer a free 2-month license.

I believe one of the problems with Forscan is that it's written by a Russian, and USA sanctions from the Ukraine invasion have eliminated his ability to get paid for his work. For the moment, he is handing out temporary "free" licenses, but when the war ends and sanctions are lifted, we should all be able to purchase a lifetime license.

He has a couple of partners that are able to process US Payments, so it's back to normal.

Thanks for that info. I see that IOBD and AKM both offer 1-year "extended" licenses. I seem to recall that it used to be possible to purchase a lifetime license, but no longer. I would have preferred that.

Both of those websites have TERRIBLE trustpilot scores and look a little sketchy. Have any of you successfully bought a license thru either site (if so, which one)?

Thanks.

I did, no adverse effects. I believe I used IOBD.io
