How did you load the image onto a virtual machine (and are you running something like VMware Workstation?)

Thank you for the reply. When you bought the software, did you receive a Windows image that you in turn loaded and unlocked (and it's the PIWIS that's locked?) ?

If so, what kind of image was it (Acronis, etc.)? I'm really close to pulling the trigger on this.

I have 39.700 , but I think to buy another 38 version
I sent the request code and serial number of the laptop, after 2 minutes I got the key, entered it and got an unlimited license

unpack to your desktop and run from it, will automatically start with a rollback of the date

I just tried to use my clone PIWIS III and I couldn't get the dongle to connect. I reset the date to last year and it connected right away. I will visit the manufacturer's website to see if there is a better fix for this and will post if I get one

Finally resolved.

The "ODX loading" message can be solved easily by changing the date.

The "mode could not be initialised" (after switching to P mode) required restoration of the OS. Here is how to do it.
  1. 25 GB image file of HDD downloaded from here: https://mega.nz/file/WKhWXQKK#_Ncn-P...M2dh9ysQUIuOdU
    • Use Opera, other browsers have in-browser storage space issues
    • Copy to usb flash disk (formatted to proper format)
  2. Restoring OS with running Windows description is here: https://kb.acronis.com/content/59870

to get started, buy a PT3G license for this head - $70
Next, you write this head manually, there is a decent number of files and Jar editing
you will need to configure it for each model, and the development mode too
Without the skills and understanding of Piwis, this cannot be done
It's easier to buy ready-made and original software

Has anyone in this group actually used PIWIS III to cut off seat belt chimes on a Panamera, Cayenne, or Macan from MY2018 forward? If so, could you write up something brief about how (assuming someone has PIWIS III, knows how to enable Mode E, and do basics like release the braking brake mechanism for brake pad servicing)? Please? Pretty please?

I gotten a whole ton of "look in Kombi" type support, and that's great (seriously - it helps), but that doesn't explain how to actually DO the coding.

In cayenne 958 i did this
In the latest versions, as far as I know in dealer mode, this cannot be done, since in new models in the latest versions, Porsche did it through the online login, it is possible to disable it through the development menu, I will see if this option is available for the latest models, but in 39 versions, developer menu is more limited

Thank you for the reply. Can you tell me what steps you followed for a 958?
