Windows 11 [patched] - Delphi Autocom

During installation, you might need to disable driver signature enforcement. This can be done through the Advanced startup options.

Windows 11 adds measurable latency due to driver thunking and USB stack changes, but remains usable for basic diagnostics (non-CAN-FD heavy modules).

USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 port for the VCI (Vehicle Communication Interface) multiplexer hardware connection.

10 GB of free Solid State Drive (SSD) space. Avoid traditional HDDs, as the Autocom vehicle database contains millions of small indexing files that cause massive lag on mechanical drives.

The Delphi Autocom CDP+ (Common Diagnostic Platform) hardware interfaces with vehicles via USB and requires proprietary drivers and a software suite (e.g., Delphi Autocom CARS 2015 or DPS 2019 ). Windows 11 introduces stricter driver signature enforcement (SHA-2 only) and enhanced security virtualization (HVCI), which often disrupts older, unsigned drivers required by clone hardware or original units with outdated firmware. In Device Manager , expand Universal Serial Bus controllers
