Everything works - code readers and scan tools

I could not disable all security features and the driver was uninstalled once, but only after I completed all installation steps (Win 7 64bit). I disabled all security features and reinstalled the driver. After installation, two icons appeared, Techstream and Techstream Patch 64bit. The first one always asks for a registration key and won't do anything without it. The second starts, connects to the vehicle, displays status, etc., but it has a main menu selection at the bottom of the screen that appears to just launch the first Techstream icon's program, which again does nothing without registration information. ... So the 64-bit version of Techstream Patch seems to be the only working part of it, maybe it uses the main part for some things. Anyway it starts and connects to the car (2011 Rav4) and some functions seem to work - once it connects to the car it gets the car information and gives you a menu to check or change everything, it shows many system states all in yellow. The health check begins. Update: The very first menu that appears after connecting to a vehicle is what it thinks of your vehicle. In my case I had to add something else - W/Smartkey or W/O Smartkey. I assumed MIT, but it was wrong. WITH gives you the SmartKey subsystem that was unresponsive on my car. When I launched the program and selected W/O, it presented me with the immobilizer subsystem, which reacted and allows you to register a new key. This Rav4's A/C won't turn on and I couldn't find any related codes. to the one, the. When your freon level drops and the pump can't build up enough pressure, they usually turn off the air conditioner until you charge it again. Something must be wrong here, but I was hoping Techstream would tell me since my pressure test manifold is with my brothers. It's not like this.
