Uninstalling the software should not remove any of the files that you have created.
It may overwrite the default dashboards. So if you've modified the default dashboards they may get set back to factory defaults.

If you want to be absolutely sure you don't lose anything then before uninstalling make a copy of the folder \My Documents\EFILive\V7.5.
Then in future if you find anything has gone missing, just copy the necessary files from the backup folder to the standard EFILive folder.

EDIT: Plugging the V2 into the laptop doesn't fix the problem I'm having. When I unplug the V2, it automatically goes back to demo mode. I can't write any tunes with it like this. What am I doing wrong??





I have a question. I un-installed the old software and installed the new. When it finished, I put my license number in and selected Commercial Scan & Tune and put the date in. I don't have my FlashScan tool with me, it's at my Dad's house. After all of this, software is still in Demo mode. With the update prior to this one I didn't need the tool connected in order to build and save tunes. Do I need to connect the V2 to the truck/laptop to get it out of demo mode?

Thanks guys.

I am having the same issue as olboyowl. One thing I did notice is the new file I saved was a V7.5 file instead a V8 file. All of the tunes for my personal 06 Dodge have the "checksum error" , but none of my other customer dodge trucks that I have on file have this issue.

good deal. still want the file?

Yes please.

This update will overwrite files in the user config folder.
So make sure to back up everything. :0

Thanks for the files. They are *.ctd files. The RC7 version does not allow you to save *.ctd files.
How exactly are you saving the files as *.ctd files?

Paul,
Why is it that this version of software reverts to "Demo" mode when I unplug the V2. My PC laptop and my Dad's do the same thing. I am unable to write tunes and save them with it like this. It wasn't like this before. Can you help?

Thanks,
Keith
