Fetrotech Tool ECU Programmer used to be activated by sending the machine code and SN to factory, and get back two files to put them in the corresponding locations to perform. But now if you buy Fetrotech Tool from August 9th, 2023, you can activate the device with the patch file (FE Version patch) and activation code/SN (on the device’s backside) by yourself. One device corresponds to one activation code. No taskbar crash problem!
