Before the "just install Linux" people show up - some things simply will not run on Linux.
Tools like this are great for a Windows VM for random Windows-only shit. Like Toyota Techstream.
Edit: I don't know why I'm getting downvoted for this. I literally have a copy of Techstream for my Toyotas, hosted in a Windows VM on my laptop that runs Linux. Techstream will only run under Windows. This is not up for debate.
The tool is good and I used to use it. But noobs be warned, you might cause hiccups or janky functionality and not understand which setting caused it.
Just install Linux and use Toyota Techstream on it bro.
Bro, just configure it for Linux bro, use
winebro...Just install Linux on the Toyota bro
Don't fucking tempt me 😂
