Hi, I've just bought this and am attempting to install the software. Unfortunately my laptop is claiming to detect ransomware in the software. As the whole thing has a bit of a pirate feel about anyway it I'm wary of continuing. Did you, or has any one else, come across this? Thanks Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave murrell Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 I just stumbled across this post about code reading the Alphard and had a quick look at our Launch MK808 that we use on the '08 Mercedes S class V6 and it has a whole list of models that are compatible up to 2019 although I have yet to try in on one.
