That is why I also suggested looking at the chipset type and trying to procure drivers through back channels to see if that makes a difference. Last but not least, there is a 3rd possibility - our drivers not working well with whichever USB chipset drivers you have in the laptop at the moment. That said, it is also entirely possible that something didn't go fully right when you upgraded Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 - hence my recommendation that before you downgrade to Windows 8.1 you could as well do a clean Windows 10 install. This may or may not be related to driver issues with the components of the laptop itself. However, the OBD-II and EOBD standards only allow for limited diagnostics, and no adjustments to any of the ECUs.Well, what I am trying to say is that Toshiba doesn't seem to have validated Windows 10 for your specific laptop model. VCDS is also capable of interfacing vehicles which use the generic OBD-II/EOBD protocols.

In general, there are two ways to use this software, either as a package (software and hardware) distributed by the manufacturer or their agents, or, by building your own interface hardware and using it with the publicly available but limited shareware version of the software. Unlike generic on-board diagnostics ( OBD-II or EOBD), VCDS uses the more in-depth Volkswagen Group-specific manufacturer protocol commands, which allows the user to access all diagnostic capable vehicle systems - even in vehicles which are not covered by generic OBD-II/EOBD (e.g. In the past, these dealership-only tools have prevented owners, and many small independent repair shops from performing some fundamental tasks, such as diagnosing problems, diesel ignition timing, modification of convenience options such as automatic door unlocking, coding a replacement electronic control unit (ECU) or key to the vehicle, and monitoring of many vehicle sensors for diagnosing problems. VCDS will perform most of the functions of the expensive electronic diagnostic tools available only to official dealers, like the current VAS 505x series diagnostic tools. It is primarily used for diagnostics and adjustments of Volkswagen Group motor vehicles, including Volkswagen Passenger Cars, Audi, Bentley (limited), Lamborghini (limited), SEAT, and Škoda automobiles, along with Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles.

VCDS (an abbreviation for "VAG-COM Diagnostic System" and formerly known as VAG-COM ) is a Microsoft Windows-based software package, developed and produced by Ross-Tech, LLC since May 2000.
