    Default Updated EFILive - Can't Load old .tun files

    I just updated my software to version 7.5.6 Build 114 (from build 84 I think it was) and when I try to open some old tun files I get the following error:

    Cannot Merge calibrations with CPU system File:
    C:\Program Files\EFILive\V7.5\Configuration\Z89.ext

    I really want to look at these old files. Is there no way to do it now?

    I think it's a version 7.4 file - not sure though. Just to see, I tried to look at some from the library of the the dieselplace and get the same error message on those.

    Problem Solved - I fired up my old laptop which still had V7.4 on it. Opened the tun file in that and re-saved it. Now the latest version will open it. Always good to keep an old version of the software around.

    On Edit - Correction, the laptop had version 7.5.5 build 84 on it......

    That seems a little strange as I am not aware that the .tun file format has ever changed.

    Well, one thing that changed was the ability to do a full flash on the Bosch ECM. I don't remember when it changed, but the .tun files created before that didn't have everything that was needed to do a full flash. Ross said you had to open the old .tun file and resave it. They went from about 800k in size to about 1.3M in size.

    That is correct, the old files did not contain the OS info, the updated files will.
    I no longer monitor the forum, please either post your question or create a support ticket.
