    I tried one of these out in the UK. The disc does contain the Toyota software but you still have to go online to register and enable it. I was fortunate the supplier was close to me and was able to collect and return the product without cost. Maybe your version is different and has a knockoff/hacked version of the software.

    Most of the "Mangoose" Chinese clones only work with 32 bit windows or 32 bit virtual machine on newer computers. If you're computer savvy you can probably figure it out with a bit of googling. A lot of the Mangoose sellers include a copy of Techstream on their CD (highly illegal for them to distribute it but they do it anyway). Google is your friend for activation information.
