You need to email the forscan people and get the extended license to start off with. Then it will 'unlock' the options in forscan that will allow you to add extra keys. I need to order myself an ebay key and ss soon as I find my USB cable I'll be doing it myself. I know a few people that have done so on Ford Excursions and it worked for them. First locate the license that you downloaded from Forscan. Right click on the license and open with notepad, once that is done you will see something like this: REGEDIT4 HKEYCURRENTUSER Software Astech FORScan”Key”=”2lHeNEkPEm. Let that stay open for the moment and find the windows icon in the lower left corner of your screen, right click on the icon, choose run.then type REGEDIT and click ok, once the registry is open.follow the path above. The license key and the text below originate from the software publisher and may be written in another language. Your activation code for 1 FORScan Extended License(s) is: FSEL-XYZK-1234-ABCD The following information is from Aleksey Savin and may be written in another language: Thanks for using FORScan!

In the 2.2.* branch we introduce new terms: Standard License and Extended License for Windows versions of FORScan.
Standard license is the default one distributed with FORScan. Anyone who has downloaded and installed FORScan version for Windows works under Standard license. FORScan under Standard license is fully functional, except some (few) functions that are available under Extended license only. Extended license is not provided by default and has to be obtained as described below.
The objectives of the Extended license:
1. Limit access to critical functions. For example, let's look at the PATS programming functions. If the function is available without any control, any thief who has a laptop and ELM327 can program new key just for seconds. We do not think this is something what our users want.
2. Take payment for functions that are most time/resource consuming in impementation. We are often asked about donation. We have no donation scheme, but in the future anyone who wish to help us financially has an ability to purchase the Extended license.
So in other words, if you are a FORScan user, you will have only 2 cases when you need the Extended license:
A. If you want to help to FORScan team financially (in the future, as currently we have no payment options).
B. If you need an access to a function that is available under Extended license. If it is your case, please do not try to inquire for Extended License unless you see the following message:
List of functions that require Extended license:
Note: the functions may be implemented not for all models. Please either check for your car support in Change Log on the Download page, or check for the function presence in the functions' list when FORScan is connected to the vehicle,
Service -> PATS Programming
Configuration and Programming -> Module Configuration
Configuration and Programming -> Module Configuration(AS BUILT format)
Configuration and Programming -> Central Configuration
Configuration and Programming -> Module Reset/Configuration (required to learn central configuration changes related to these modules)
All the rest functions do not require an Extended License!
A. How to get paid long term or life long Extended License:
1. You can purchase Extended License on the Products page through our partner's site (MyCommerce/ShareIt). You can order 1, 3, 5 years or lifelong license.
2. As soon as your payment is processed, the shop will show you order/confirmation page that contains Activation Code, and also will send you the confirmation email that contains the Activation Code and installation instruction. It will look like the following:
3. Please install the Activation Code as instructed.
It is important to note the following:
- Internet connection is required at the moment of activation. After activation, FORScan doesn't require Internet connection.
- Activation Code is not one-time code. It needs to be used again to activate the Extended License if activation is lost for some reason. It is recommend to store the Activation Code in safe place. If Activation Code is lost, you can request it from FORScan support team.
- 1 license is supposed to be used on a single PC. You can order several licenses at once (just specify number of licenses you need), in this case all of them will be connected to the same Activation Code, so this code can be used on several PCs.
B. How to get free 2 months trial extended license:
1. Copy the Hardware Id from the About chapter of FORScan:
