Got the program to run, identified my vehicle, then it stalled out waiting for online verification. Tried a couple more times but still had the same problem.

I emailed the company and they promptly responded back that their server was apparently down, and notified me a few hours later when it was back up.

Tried again and coding finished within a few minutes. Worth the wait! Full screen looks and functions the way it should now!
Thank you very much for your feedback
