You can install INPA on Windows 10 (run it in Compatability Mode). . I have INPA on my MacBook Pro with Parallels running Win10. No issues except that when you plug in the DCAN cable to the USB port, Parallels will ask if you want to connect it to MacOS or to Windows.

Thanks a million, never heard that before, and always wondered why all these companies who sell the INPA always say works only on XP, and here I have been sitting on this issue for months, so thank you, not being a computer person, is Parallels a program that also must be downloaded, never heard of it? Thanks again, I appreciate it.

I have looked into it and since I don't have a mac, which is what it is used on to install win 10, I was wondering if it is also needed when you are not using a mac laptop?

With your scanner properly installed, you should be able to turn off specific injectors one at a time and notice a difference. Very helpful.

Parallels is only needed on a Mac to allow it to easily run Windows on demand. If you are not on a Mac...no need for it.
