I would still say you don't have the read_evo folder in the same path as your other xmls folders. ECUflash can't find the read templates.

looking at your screen shot the ROM metatdata is in the c:\users......roaming\ path, the read_evo folder and it's contents need to be there as well

I also have this problem, luckly I use tephra V7 and i have back up copies in my laptop already.

I am using windows vista
My car is a 2003 EVO gsr
ROM ID: 94170715 using APPLAUDS V7 XML
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling ecuflash and evoscan
I am using ECUflash 1.42.2595
I am using the Tactrix 1.3U cable
I can not read my rom.
Ecuflash comes up with a blank screen when trying to read (shows no selections).
I can not read DTC codes with Evoscan.
I can read and write Evo IX roms.

My read template file has
read_evo5.xml
read_evo7.xml
read_evo9.xml
read_evo65.xml
etc...

OPTIONS > Metadata Directory in ecuflash is:
C:/Program files/OPENECU/ECUFLASH/ROMMETADATA/MITSUBISHI/EVO

My battery is in A++ condition, 12V or over when writing to ecu or trying to read

I can write roms no problem at all.
I can scan OBD codes with Scan Tech and the tactrix 1.3U cable
I can log with EvoScan

I have been able to read my rom and read DTCs in the past, unfotunatly IDK the exact time this started happening. Hopefully we can fix this.
Mabye a problem with vista? I know vista can be a pain in the **** lol

1. What happens when you do a fresh install and leave everything as standard, don't change any paths etc?
2. Do you copy the folder, or just the templates?

Dr.evo your meta data directory is not pointing to the correct folder, it tells you that on the log screen of ecuflash in your picture you posted

You need to direct it to the correct folder, when ecuflash is open go to file then options then metadata directory. Hit the browse button and select the folder that you read template folder is in.

I'm wondering if you need to delete the registry entries for ECUflash once you've uninstalled it. BTW do you run it as admin?

yea i think it is.. cause doesnt it have to be as admin. in order to put in a patch?...

ok so i went to the options and to the metadatadirectory and it said rommetadata on the selection.. and i went through and put it in the read template.. i think wen i was trying to do the tephra i might of changed it by accident.. but now wat is the rom file directory suppose to be set at?.. cause i did that one by accident.. i thnk i put it back to wat it was but just wana make sure..

burgers22

As I've said, you need to do the folder.
