YES, I just now renewed mine for the ump-teenth time, got the key about 20 minutes after submitting the request, no problems whatsoever.

@Big Dog Daddy, would you consider editing the thread title and your OP to make it clear that only the ANNUAL license is affected - users can get and run under the free 2-month license, and renew that when it expires, with no problem!

(y)
Done! I Hope that makes it clearer. Yet me know and I can adjust if needed. ?

Yes. I've probably suggested this half a dozen times or more on the forums since the paid version became a no-go.
I'm sorry, if this thread caused confusion, it was meant for the die hard guys that use it every day for diagnostics.

As a new to (soon to be) GOREScan user, what’s the difference between trial & paid version? Limitations, etc.

With that being said, I wouldn’t mind to be ahead of the truck as well, when I start using the SW. Anyone can chime in or point me in the right direction on the following question(s). Since mine was originally a CDN market designated truck, will there be any difference following the current posted FOREScan sheets for minor changes/tweaks, that I would like to make.

It doesn't appear as if you understand.

Again, nobody is forcing you to use FORScan.

Security risk? Because you voluntarily use software?

No, FDRS does not offer everything that is available in FORScan, and vice versa.
I think you are the one who doesn't understand! I just said that I think it is a better idea to have a US made software instead of a Timbuktu made one for obvious reasons! I never said anything about being forced to use Forscan either! And your second sentence makes it sound like the software is in fact a security risk. Among all the other gibberish stuff you wrote, the last sentence is finally a half decent one! Thank you!

Well that sucks. Hopefully they get it resolved. Russia had quite a few big game studios that had to 'restructure' things when Der Führer decided the neighboring state needed a new owner. Forscan performs as expected with no untoward behavior unlike just about everything coming out of the large country to russia's south on the same continent. Why does a simple battery voltage app need precise GPS data to be used? Doesn't do it much good when the device can't connect to any network ;)

Don't even get me started on NATO as they've morphed "from tanks to tweets" over the last 8 years. The attack on all of big tech in the EU, X (and his related companies) in brazil, etc...., the twiter files, and so on. Then of course there's the backdoors natively built into all of the cellular backend thanks to the 3 letter boys that's handed complete viewing of all SMS data to the chinese.

What part of "you don't get to decide what product or service other people choose to offer do you NOT comprehend"? JHC!

Me saying that you're not forced to use it is somehow a security risk? Huh?

No difference except you don't have to renew the license every 2 months. Plus, you're money is helping support the development efforts.

No difference for your CDN market vehicle relative to how the software works.

Ok brother, calm down, he has sensible replied to your comment(s), just ease up, my guy. We’re good, we are all here, learning. It’s a forum to learn and get better, learning from others knowledge. I might have some expertise in Honda/Acura, more than FORD products at my age, but you know what, I’m not an expert at working on FORD’s, learning curves can happen when you’re cross-owning vehicle brands. ??

My current is a 3 year license. I'll limp along with renewing the 2 month if things aren't squared up when it expires.
We'll be OK, eventually this will get straightened out, I hope.

Copy, just didn’t know if they crossed over or didn’t, by reviewing the current spreadsheets provided within this support forum.

Thanks for your input. ?
