VIDA 2014D/2015A Windows 11
-
@ZaanTerror I did some testing with your newest version of VIDA. This time i created a Windows 2 Go-USB Stick with WIN11 25H2.
Clean Installation worked fine.
VIDAMonitor starts without errors.
IE Mode in Edge works without user interaction.While playing with VIDA, I noticed 2 things.
When in parts catalogue, clicking on any position number in the parts diagram leads to a short freeze of Edge and the associated line in the parts list won't get highlighted.
The Software tab is completely empty/just shows a blank screen. As sw downloads don't work with this version of VIDA, and I look up sw numbers in Parts catalogue, this is no big deal for me. But still, is this intentional?
Both issues might be caused by the medium/low transfer speed of the USB stick I used, but I'm not sure. The overall performance feeling of your VIDA version is really good.As an additional suggestion. Would it be possible to integrate the drivers for Mongoose and VXDiag adapters, as these quite often can be found inside the housings of DICEs bought from chinese plattforms?

@T5-T6-Schnappi
Thank you for testing!
I could add the drivers as an optional part of the installation because not everyone needs them.
Could you provide me link to the drivers in chat?I will have a look into the other issues you had and report back later.
I must say VIDA depends alot on hardware as you run the Server and cliënt on the same computer.
I noticed VIDA becomes faster after using it for a while. -
01-02-2026 UPDATE:
- Upgraded JBoss EAP to version 8.1 update 3.(latest version available today)
- Upgraded Java to JDK 21.0.10. (Newer versions will break VIDA)
The download link will stay the same, when you download again you will have the newest version.

@ZaanTerror I just did another unplanned test and revived a completely borked VIDA Installation on an old WIN 10 Laptop thanks to your work and effort. Same issues. Empty Software tab and short lags/freezes in the parts catalogue when you click on the position numbers of any part in the parts diagrams. But still great responsiveness and speed compared to an original VIDA 2014D.
Will test your new version tomorrow. -
@ZaanTerror finally found the time to do some testing of your latest version (03.02.26 from MEGA).
Clean install worked flawless, as usual.
Playing a little on a 2001 S60 and a 2018 V60CC(P3) didn't bring up any problems. Diagnostics, parts catalogue and service functions were working as expected.
Good work!!! -
@T5-T6-Schnappi : so the 2018 models are recognized in this version of Vida? it's not limited to 2015 only?
-
@sizan this version is patched to support some P1 and P3 cars up to 2019. But for my V60CC with a VEA engine I have to use a workaround. Cross Countrys are only supported in the US partner group, and only with 5 cylinder petrol engines. The workaround is explained here https://svdns.info/2022/01/15/using-vida-2014d-with-an-unsupported-vin/

Thank you for this release of Vida together with Windows 11. It was just to unzipping the file and starting the installation, and after a while everything was up and running since you had also attached the other files that you otherwise had to download yourself.
So again, a BIG THANK YOU for this

Id like to try this out, Currently have been using a 2015a version on windows 10 ltsc machine.
I want to update my surface pro to windows 11 though, so would like to try this version out there.
Ill send you a Pm @ZaanTerror

Yes if you install the original EWD CD-Rom it will overwrite the online EWD.

it works great on Windows 10/11 LTSC IoT. Thanks alot for the release, I notice quite abit is upgraded, uses arbortext instead of isoview ect.
Only issue ive had thus far, not sure if anyone else can chime in~ I did a fresh install of w11, and then optional features i setup 3.5 net. and let microsoft download it. then i let vida installer work, everything seems to work.
~sometimes the Arbortext( im guessing) will load up the image of the modules all zoomed in, and i cannot zoom it back out. my temp~ fix has been to just relaunch it then itll show up as the regular size modules layout.
Very small gripe to me, But anyone else notice that? I often need to see if the modules are all online, On previous versions ive seen itll read all the modules but the ecm. so i like to be able to see all the modules on that small little screen, Another side~ fix is if i load up say, Network itll glitch the network image to be zoomed in. but both faults, and the activations portion will show me the proper sized overlay.
I can post a photo just incase this sounds like insanity.
But thanks so much @ZaanTerror for the great release. Im assuming the issue im having is on my end, just not sure what could be causing it.
-
@Vreaper Thank you for the review! I will look into the NET Framework prerequisite.
I think youre issue with the image(s) has to be arbortext isoview.
Isoview is responsible for showing the modules and parts images.You could try uninstalling Arbortex Isoview 7.1 and installing another version of IsoView and see if it resolves the issue.
The latest version is 7.3 and the original VIDA version is 4.0.

Ive just installed it on mu windows 11 home.
It works fine!
Except the minor zoom issue in the ecu modules as per others experienced. But that really does not matters.
Other minor issue is on the visual also,
When i perform data trending under vehicle communication, the trend scales number seems to be overlap.
But anyways, the installation is actually my biggers concern and thank you for compiling the installation file so well. The single-click setup works perfectly and makes the whole process very smooth and convenient. I really appreciate the effort you put into making it simple and reliable.
