IDS V100.01 installation reference. Step 1: set up VMwareworkstation. Step 2:installwindows XP professional and set up VMware tools. Step 3: install Calibration C81. Step 4: install ids-v91.01. And check if IDS-91.01 is installed well. Step 5: install Ford-IDS-V100.01-full, and diagnose with IDS 100.01. If you have successfully installed/used Ford IDS V96, then directly download and install IDS V97. Better backup files before installing v97. IDS V97 Installation main steps: Install V81 calibration files; Install V91 IDS (Should have 3 day trail information after install V91 IDS, otherwise fail to install, quit the IDS.).
Ford IDS v86 crack can be installed directly on Windows native, for pre-2012 vehicles. But with IDS other versions (original), usually you’ll have 3-day trial only. So, how to solve? There’ll be three options for you. Here you go.
IDS Software – Evaluation License
A non-renewable evaluation license has been installed on your computer which will expire in 3 days
Note: a production license must be activated prior to or at expiration of the Evaluation License to continue using Vehicle Communications
Select the Obtain Production License button below to activate a Production License now or select the Continue button to continue using your Evaluation License
Way 1: use VMWARE player
To install VMWARE which can freeze and restore ids when you use it (like a restore point but no registry entries for rollback)
Using a VMWARE image would have been MUCH easier. Simply make a copy of a windowsXP virtual machine BEFORE installing IDS. Then when you 3days is up.. delete that virtual machine and then use your backup one.. install IDS and continue on again!
Use v91 vmware (fix the day)->v100 (others)
In details…
with ids installed and expired
start task manager and make sure no ids or bosch services are running.
get iobit uninstaller and system care
use iobit uninstaller to remove ids and bosch at end of basic uninstall
select deep scan, then select shred files
next start iobit system care and do a registry scan, or better still a full scan
next manually delete the files bosch and ids in program files and in program date
then empty bin and shred files
reboot your machine and it will then allow a re install
Look here: How to install Ford IDS VMware
NO active license…
look here: When you open VM at first time, choose “I move it” and all will be OK.
Way 2: install Deep freeze
Just don’t open IDS install deep freeze and no need to change cmos date every time

Way 3: crack software by license files
How to crack Ford IDS software by License file?
- Please don’t run the IDS software, before you install the License “Ford-License for IDS.exe”.2. If you can see the windows process “XMLRegistryD.exe” in the windows task manager, then kill the windows process “XMLRegistryD.exe” before you run the “Ford-License for IDS.exe” License.
When you install the License “Ford-License for IDS.exe”, you may see” Can’t run patch while IDS program is running.”, what should you do? Here is the answer.
While you install the License “Ford-License for IDS.exe”, if you see the picture 1, then you should do the step 1, step 2, step 3.
Step 1:Press the “windows key + R” of the keyboard, then display the picture 2:
Step 2: Input the “TASKMGR” into the textbox of “open (o)”, then display the picture 3:
Step 3: Kill the windows process “XMLRegistryD.exe”.
Step 4:Rerun the License “Ford-License for IDS.exe” .then directly display the picture 5.
The last…. it’s IMPORTANT for you to read something about IDS software license…
VCM2 license:
easy way to crack download any version from any where you like..
and just before opening ids. install deep freeze…restart..
then every time you get 3 days lic… you start ids enter your detial like dealer id,country.. etc.. it gives you 3 days licence..
hurry no playing with cmos date…
just don’t open IDS install deep freeze and no need to change cmos date every time
VXdiag licence:
is actually written on the hard drive and since the the VM is in non-persistent mode, it disappears as soon as you turn off the VM.
Remove non persistent mode. Get your license and put back the non persistent mode.
Make sure not to launch IDS while you do this
VCM2 or VXDIAG VCX NANO Ford:
In my opinion VXdiag tools are crappy and not worth buying it.
Using vcm2 sp177-c1 I can communicate with all car and truck. But still have difficulty programming some pre 2010 truck / SUV.
On a side note, to save your time and avoid installation issues, you can go to Ford IDS software VMware without license issues:
