Also, are there any errors reported when tunerpro starts about missing or broken files? There should not be.

I had the same issues as immortality and that was the only way I could get mine to be seen by TP ... but also work re-directs the profile stuff to funky locations here so that might have something to do with it.

Yeah, I wonder if putting stuff in a different location effects things. I have tunerpro is a different Library.

It would be good if there was a drop down menu where the user could specify default folders for various things like .bin, .xdf, .adx locations etc

a lot of apps just point to the environment variable %userprofile%
type that into a start > run box and see where it goes...

Hi all, after weeks of successfully running TP dashboard I have all of a sudden being having a real hard time connecting. I must have rebooted the laptop 20 times this afternoon and only got it to connect a couple of times. I changed the echo settings and no different, used two different laptops and no different. It seems to connect when the engine is not running but as soon as you start the engine I the connect goes from blue to flashing red error. Not sure what could have changed, any input is appreciated as this is frustrating.

Just another question, is there any way of properly closing TP so you don't have to reboot. Task manager doesn't seem to end task properly. Cheers.

Does your USB lead have a ferrite bead fitted?

Does it have a big fat bit around the cable at one end?
