there are 54 pages here and I just successfully installed XDOS Openshell (full) on a Windows 10 64bit Home edition. I just wanted to share that I had problems with my Xentry start key being invalid and I had to go into the BIOS and disable secure boot and set it to UEFI. After that I was able to input my start key (wifi off just to make sure). I had a hard time finding this fix and is not really prominently posted anywhere but do have scattered mentions of it so sharing again on this thread.

Quoted from another post but unsure the original user --

make sure you have disabled secure boot for your version of windows. Google that bit specifc for you device manufacturer, but its straight forward.

The quick way of checking if its on or off is:
'windows key' + R (or start menu > run)
type 'msinfo32'
Hit ok

Look up the secure boot line to see if its on or off.
Two images attached for reference from two machines...
So simple to do but creates headaches if you don't (talking from experience!)

I too had such a headache trying to figure this out and installed the old xentry keys fix in both 64/32 bit locations just in case but still nothing worked. viola-- turned secure boot off and worked like a charm

I also had another machine that I successfully installed XENTRY Passthru on a Windows 7 32bit VMWARE and used the Toyota xhorse MVCI driver with an ebay J2534 adapter. I was able to communicate to both 2010 W204 and 2017 X156
