Default Flashpro on Windows 10

I did some digging around and this is all I found: https://www.hondata.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=18207

I can not get Flashpro manager to open datalogs or read codes on my windows 10 laptop. Flashpro manager recognizes when Flashpro is hooked up, plugged into the car, and when the car is on but that's all I can do. Kind of at a loss here as Hondata's official stance seems to be "it works fine" but it's not working at all for me. Anyone have any suggestions?

That's funny because I had similar issues. I say the issues involve the drivers, but I am unsure.

I Gernby road tuned my car a year ago using a Windows 10 laptop. Mine is an Asus and sometimes I had to unplug/re-plug FlashPro to get it to link with the ECU. Once I got all green icons on the bottom line it worked fine.

You're saying you can't read the datalogs residing on your PC under Windows 10? I'm on FlashPro 2.4.2.0 and can read my datalogs and calibrations on the PC. FlashPro is in the tool box and not connected right now. There may have been some issues with earlier versions.

The software frequently installs new firmware into the FlashPro itself. Calibrations need to be reloaded into FlashPro if you've changed the software on the PC. I recall FlashPro will store two that can be loaded without the PC in the car.

I am also running Windows 10 (Dell XPS 14 laptop) and have frequent issues with FlashPro software not sensing the FlashPro. I frequently have to disconnect and reconnect the device and sometimes even reboot the computer for it to show up. Had no issues like this in the past running both Windows XP and Windows 7.

Yes! Sometimes it won't see it. I will unplug and switch usb ports a couple of times to get it to work sometimes.

It's not a Windows 10 problem. It's a FlashPro problem. I have to unplug and re-plug in my Flashpro for various connection issues at least once a week.
- Bluetooth App if not gracefully exited, will sometimes put the FlashPro into a juju. You have to disconnect it from OBD2 and then reconnect.
- Datalog transfer will sometimes shit itself half way through and it won't even read the owner info on the FlashPro etc. Again, must disconnect and reconnect.
- Randomly, it'll stop working for no reason whatsoever without any recent prior connections.


I have not come across another EMS product with worse Software Quality issues than this stupid thing.

Mine works great on a shitty Dell Windows 7 laptop that I can't seem to get the f@#king Windows 10 free upgrade to work.
