Flashpro does'nt allow me to recover password.
Flashpro does'nt allow me to recover password.
I recently had to go through a long and frustrating process to load the flashpro drive on my new laptop with windows 7(64 bit I'm assuming).Once this was accomplished I plugged my flashpro in and saw that all of my owner info was not filled in. I attempted to update my flashpro after filling in my info and was asked for my password...I normally use one of two passwords for almost everything and neither worked so I attempted to recover the password but when I do I get a message that flashpromanagerexe. has stopped working.
Now recently my personal infor is filled in with weird characters in all of the blocks but I still can't retrieve my password.I als can't see any datalogs that I've done even though it's showing that space has been used by datalogs.

Some more information would be helpful. See http://www.hondata.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10108
The first thing you need to do is to download and install the latest FlashProManager software. If you installed the USB drivers from the CD you should also update the USB drivers from the FlashProManager installation directory, not the CD.

Flashpro manager version V1.1.0.1
no calibration involved
no datalog involved

not sure what modifications would affect the ECU buy I have Intake, header and exhaust.
The problem is described in my first post.
Also.I'm not sure how to update the usb drivers from the flashpro installation directory.I had problems because the flashpro drivers did'nt automatically install so I had to do it manually.(There are many posts in a hondata flashpro thread on 8thcivic.com)

If you have V1.1.0.1 then you need to update to V1.1.1.
Follow these instructions to manually install the USB drivers:

Aside from my Flashpro driver being not up to date(I don't know how to update it if I have to do it manually)My main problem is this.....
Once I got the flashpro driver re-installed on my computer(actually I got a new computer with windows 7 already on it,my old one had vista and Flashpro worked perfectly then)I tried to update my "registered owner" info as I saw that it was blank.Once I filled in all of the blanks ans I attempt to update I am asked for my password,which I'm told is incorrect,so thinking that maybe I used a password I don't normally use I just attempt to recover/retrieve my password.
So far I'm thinking these problems are all my fault,but then I get a pop-up box that says that "flashpro manager.exe has stopped working".In the box in ine print it reads"A problem has caused this program to stop working correctly.Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available".
I doon't know what to do,but also,apon plugging in the device to my laptop tonight to see if a datalog worked(it did'nt by the way,and I did it the same way as when I had it on Windows Vista)I was asked if I wanted to instal the defice driver,I clicked yes and it went about installing the device driver like it did when I first plugged it in,but I would think the driver should have stayed on my computer if I already installed it once.

My advice to you is to start over from scratch.bossman wrote:bump...anyone?
Uninstall the Hondata FlashPro Manager software.
Re-download the latest version and reinstall it again. (I also suggest turning off your antivirus software if you have one while doing this, remember to turn it back on after!)
Connect the FlashPro and install drivers just as you did before.
Connect your FlashPro to EVERY usb port on your computer and install drivers for it the same way each time. (if it asks for it)
Sometimes when you plug into a different usb port, the computer doesn't recognize the FlashPro.
The point of re-installing the software is to eliminate a problem in the installation process. Sometimes virus scanners don't cooperate with installations that it thinks are shady. It may not let a needed program file be copied to your computer if it thinks the file is harmful (false positive).
You can probably right-click on the antivirus icon in your taskbar on the bottom right (i dont know which one you have) and close it or shut it down or something.
Its just a computer, it won't explode =)

ok..I've made progress,apparently the anti-virus was a BIG part of the problem and I have now been able to re-register my flashpro and update my owner info.Here's the newest thing that is frusteratiiong.....once the anti-virus was turned off I tried my password and it worked(when asked for it when updating the owner info) but when I tried to upload a calibration I was again asked for my password and I used the same one,only this time is says Incorrect password.I "retrieved " my password via E-mail and sure enough I was using the correct password but for some reason it does'nt like that password(the same one that successfully let me update my flashpro)when I try to upload.
btw,I tried everything with and without the anti-virus on I don't know what else could be stopping my progress.
