Here’s the story of how we got it working — and how you can too. AutoData 3.40 was built for Windows XP/7. On Windows 10, it throws cryptic errors. But there’s a fix. He downloaded vb6run

We ran the program as administrator after compatibility settings. Then went to Settings → Database Path and pointed it to the folder where AUTODATA.MDB actually lived (inside the CD or copied to C:\AutoData\Data ). Step 5: The Final Test After a reboot, Marco launched AutoData 3.40. The interface looked a bit small (high DPI screens), but it worked. He searched for BMW 3 Series (E46) 2001 — wiring diagrams, torque specs, everything loaded.

AutoData 3.40 tries to write to C:\Program Files (x86)\ but Windows 10 protects that folder aggressively.

Good luck — and may your diagnostics always find the fault code.
