ACTIVATION OF MODULES:
If you received a key from an online store and the modules are not activated on it, you need to apply for initial activation at this store (where you bought it),
because I activate modules only if this store sends me an activation request using this key (the store is the intermediate owner).

In the case of a direct purchase from me, the key has already passed the initial activation upon shipment. For further module activations, you can contact both the store and me directly. Ultimately, only I can activate the modules anyway, and the store will forward your requests to me, so it's faster and easier to contact me directly.

It may happen that you downloaded the program before activating the modules. In this case, after confirming activation, you should repeat the procedure and redownload it from the server, deleting the old one.


INSTALLATION FROM SCRATCH:

1. If necessary, download the key driver from the link: https://gendump.ru/upd/GrdDrivers.7z
Install the key driver, and only then insert the key into the USB connector.

2. Download and unpack the archive with the installer https://gendump.ru/upd/GendumpsSetup.7z and launch SetupGendump.exe then specify the installation folder (different from the one in which the installer was unpacked), the further installation process is performed automatically.
After that, a shortcut should appear on the desktop, and the program is ready for use.


UPDATE THE PROGRAM:

1. Standard method: Click the "Update" button, and the program will automatically install and update the version.

2. Emergency method: Download and unzip the installer archive https://gendump.ru/upd/GendumpsSetup.7z and run SetupGendump.exe. Then specify the installation folder (different from the one you unzipped the installer to). The rest of the installation process will be automatic.
Afterwards, a shortcut should appear on your desktop; the program is ready to use.


SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:

1. Recommended operating system: Windows 10, Windows 11
2. Microsoft Access Database Engine should be installed, usually installed with Microsoft Office,
you can take from here: https://gendump.ru/upd/AccessDatabaseEngine.exe

3. Starting from the version of the program 7.0.0, the Microsoft platform must be installed on the computer you are using.NET Framework 4.6 and higher
https://www.microsoft.com/ru-ru/download/details.aspx?id=49982

4. If you have Windows 11 and the Guardant key driver throws a blue screen of death when installing, there is a solution: https://dev.guardant.ru/display/KB/0031

5. If the error "It was not possible to create a secure SSL/TLS channel" occurs during installation, then you should check and correct the incorrect date/time on your computer, make sure that the firewall and proxy server settings are correct, and update the operating system to support modern TLS 1.2 and higher protocols.

For Windows 7 SP1, if necessary, you can try to change the value in the registry by running the file: Win7 TLS 1.2 enable.reg


UPDATES

It is recommended to upgrade to the latest version before starting work. Not only are new blocks being added there, but those that were already on the list are also being edited.
When updating in normal mode, just click the "update" button and wait for the latest version of the program to be installed and launched. If something goes wrong, I recommend deleting the old program folders, re-downloading the installer, running it and specifying the folder for installing the application (not the one where the installer itself is located, but where the program is planned to be located)

Starting from version 8.0.0.20, the program itself monitors updates and is updated with one button. If there is an Internet connection and a new version on the server, the update button will appear in the main form.
The installer weighs about 7MB, with a typical installation it takes about a minute and downloads about 60Mb, everything should be done by itself, all you have to do is click update.. the program should close and the progress bar will crawl, then if everything is fine, the new version will open by itself.

For those who work OFFLINE in difficult conditions and do not have a network, there are 2 options:
1. Before leaving, view the necessary blocks with the Internet enabled, the images are cached and they can be viewed offline at the exit.
2. download the full archive with the program and pictures separately in advance (via the link in the closed forum topic)
Updates are currently free.

For those who have had the program installed for a long time, sometimes "for prevention" you can delete the entire program folder and restart it from the installer, this is an analog of how to "clear the cache" in the browser... it helps if the pictures are not shown adequately and so on...

TERMS OF USE

In case of suspicion of misuse of the Dump Generator program, or self-modification of the program code, or modification of the program code by third parties, the program author reserves the right to block the USB protection keys and the program at its discretion without explanation. Claims in such cases are not accepted.


THE KEY IS BROKEN

If the key is broken, it is possible to replace it. To do this, send it to the author. The transfer and the cost of the new key are paid by the owner. All active modules will be migrated to the new key.



THE KEY IS LOST

In case of loss of the key, activation of the modules to a new one is again paid for. Be sure to specify your situation and the number of the old key when buying, in which case a discount is provided.


HOW THE PROGRAM WORKS

In the case of working with your dump, the program requires a dump that you merged, for example, in the case of SRS, this is a dump with Crash data about the crash. It is based on it that a new corrected dump is formed. That is, if for some reason you have lost the original dump (you broke the chip by soldering it out or incorrectly counted it), then there is no point in slipping a file with empty contents to the program. The program corrects only some areas of the dump depending on the task being performed, it will not return the entire original dump to you and claims about this will not be accepted.
In this case, it is possible to download a dump from the server (when it is installed in the dump database, a green "download dump" button appears). A dump may not be one hundred percent suitable for your car due to the presence of features of the dump contents (VIN, encoding, etc.), but this gives a great chance to restore the block's functionality. Some dumps do not contain such data and are replaceable in this case.

HOW IT WAS CHECKED

Unfortunately, I cannot guarantee 100% reliability. Although I try to make everything work well. In any case, write to me and I will try to help you. The program implements a block rating that users can increase with the successful use of a specific algorithm. Other users of the program subsequently see how many times this algorithm has successfully worked with colleagues.


RESPONSIBILITY

The author of this program has collected data from open sources and automated the process of changing memory dumps. The author of the program does not bear any responsibility for the use of this product and its consequences.
The dumps modified by the program can only be used in laboratories and at special test sites off public roads.


LOCAL HELP

It is possible to fill in your own version of the Dump Generator with information. That is, locally on your computer you will have a folder with a set of files you need for specific modules and blocks, any name, for example LocalHelp. Everyone forms this data by himself according to his own desire and understanding. It is better to create the LocalHelp folder separately from the Dump Generator in such a place so as not to accidentally delete it when updating the program. After updating or when you first access it, the program will ask you for the folder location. You should specify the path to LocalHelp where the information will be stored in the future. The essence is simple, select the desired block and click the Local Help button... Files in these folders can be stored anywhere, from images to PDF, text and other...


Module 1. SRS Airbag crash removal

Select the desired block, specify the path to the read dump, and click "start"... A second cleaned one will appear next to the dump. The Crash jackdaw means that instead of cleaning the block, digital garbage will be written to the addresses where Crash is usually written (these are the wishes of some users), it will be randomly generated, by default it is disabled.


Module 13. Editing error masks in control units

Select the block, specify the desired firmware and the program displays a list of active error masks, it is possible to disable the selected masks and save them back to the file. Checksums are not recalculated during editing. If the program does not recognize the firmware, the corresponding message will be displayed. Please send dumps with descriptions that the program could not do or did incorrectly.


FEEDBACK FORM

To update, correct, and add new updates... I would like the program to be filled with proven options, not from the folds, but from the users themselves, the ideal option is when the readout was given to the calibrator and a sound tuning file was made based on this, then when everything is checked on the car, a couple of dumps are sent before and after the edit.
Otherwise, it turns out that I can buy the folds myself and pour them all into the program, but unfortunately the quality is often lame in them, and there are many untested options, and thus this will lead to the program gradually turning into a bunch of mixed dumps, of which it will be scary to fill in options that can also be purchased online conditionally. for a thousand rubles a pack without resorting to the program...


THE POINTS SYSTEM.

The points were introduced much later than the creation of the program, to motivate users to add new algorithms.
When new blocks and solutions are successfully added to the program, points are accumulated, which can later be used to activate modules and download dumps.
Carefully read the item "Feedback form", about the fact that only personally tested options are needed...

The author reserves the right to personally set the amount of points awarded in each specific case.

When the user starts the program, they will see how many points they have in their account.

Comments and suggestions are welcome and discussed
