Ford Ids License Hack
As for IDS software, the license is for 3 days and users are told to install software freezing to enable you to use it for longer, what it means and how to do?
General explanation on 3 days license and how to do:
The story goes that with every install of ids you have so many days trial period to test it.
The hackers would make a patch to bypass the date registry so it never got requested.
How to Crack Ford VCM IDS V80 License Installing Notice Ford VCM IDS V80 software can be used on Super ford vcm ids License Installing Notice. FORD IDS SOFTWARE CRACK DOWNLOAD. Crack Ids ford software for ford ids. Howto Crack Or Hack A. Download the latest IDS software from one of the following. Ford VCM IDS,Ford scan tool latest version. The IDS package replaces the Worldwide Diagnostic System (WDS). The IDS application will perform the identical functions of the WDS and allows dealership technicians to diagnose and service Ford, Lincoln, Mercury vehicles. As the new diagnostic tool, IDS will be required to perform diagnostics on future model year vehicles.
Latest patch is v86.xx after that there are no patches, so v9.xx installs but gives 3 days evaluation (used to be 5 days on v7/v8.xx.
So now we have to somehow reverse the date 3 days.
Standard install will know that you’ve rolled back the date so won’t work unless you can completely remove the registry entries or reinstall windows (but who wants to do that eh 😕 ) so now they’ve invented a freeze program that you install first which basically allows you to roll back the date every 2/3 days and run ids again. The other option is to install vmware which can freeze and restore ids when you use it (like a restore point but no registry entries for rollback)
But you don’t need vmware if you install the freeze program correctly.
