How do I Register/Activate my VAG-COM software?

1 How do I Register/Activate my VAG-COM software?

All of our Current Interfaces have Activation built-in, so VAG-COM
should always be Fully Activated once it has been tested on a car. If
you have an older Interface without built-in Activation, or have
purchased an Interface somewhere other than Ross-Tech, click here for
Activation instructions.

2 What’s the difference between the Shareware version and the fully registered version?

All of our Current Interfaces have Activation built-in, so VAG Diagnostic Tool
will always be Fully Registered/Activated. If you have an older
Interface without built-in Activation, or have purchased an Interface
somewhere other than Ross-Tech, VAG-COM will operate in Shareware mode
until it is Activated. The differences between Shareware and fully
registered/activated versions are listed near the bottom of each
function page in the Online Demo / Manual and in the VAG-COM Function
Chart.

3 Is Product Support included in the price?

Absolutely. If you have a question or problem, please post it to the VAGCOM 18.2
mailing list, mail it to us directly, or give us a call. However,
please understand that we don’t know everything about every
VW/Audi/SEAT/Skoda ever made.
