Hello all, I am definitely very new to VCDS ownership. This morning, I went ahead and tried to use the tool, installing as per directions, and plugging it in. However, no matter what I click on to modify my car, It doesn't sense anything. I was running everything with my car (2019 Volkswagen GLI) on, without the motor running. I have used tuners in the past, such as SCT and Diablo sport, but this program completely baffles me. This may be a very painfully newbie question here, but I can't get it to scan or work on my car. I use a laptop, (Dell G7), and via USB, I plug it in. Everything is tightened down, so no loose connections. I really hate pointing my finger at "Broke Hardware" if I can avoid it, but I can't find a video for dummies. every video I watch is basically, "I plug it in and it works, and now I can do XYZ." But there is no preface to that for me to verify I am actually plugging it in correctly. I bought this tool for the main reason is that I was told that I could set the car to enable having my windows go down while holding unlock, and vice versa with lock. If anyone could please lend me a hand, I would be very grateful.
