Wurth WoW 5.00.12v to 5.00.19v Update: Database & Diagnosis Versions Transfer Guide

viper1989 61233 33
Best answers

How can I transfer or update the database and diagnosis files from WOW 5.00.12 to WOW 5.00.19?

The thread does not show a confirmed one-step upgrade path from 5.00.12 to 5.00.19, and users warn that simply copying folders may fail because of program protection or license checks [#16984308][#17029928] The only concrete procedure shared is to keep both installs on the same PC, then copy the database/language files from the source install’s `date` folder into the target WOW folder and replace the matching files there [#19658514] Specifically, the files mentioned are `V_Labels Blob`, `V_Labels Xml`, `V_Labels Data`, `Pd_Languages xml`, and `Pd_Languages data` [#19658514] After that, open `start_wow.lax` in Notepad and change `Language=2` to `Language=15`, then save [#19658514] If the program still does not start in Polish, copy `START WOW` from the older install as well, and expect to reactivate afterward [#19658514][#18865051]

    Talk to Tomek Kozak, he will definitely advise something: https://www.goldenline.pl/tomasz-kozak5/
    As I needed to complete the wardrobe with ferrites after a year of EMC research, it quickly appeared, he made a diagnosis of what is missing and after a week I got a package to the company :)

    Thanks Czarek for info!
    I hope, however, that someone will go with information like "take a folder cs_modulediagnosis and flip" :) I have managed several maneuvers but finally the program dysfunction ends or some other type of failure to purchase a further license.

    I have combed myself in several ways but maybe there is some way to overwrite it in the program. these are really ordinary files with vehicle bases, etc. but there must be some security that I do not want to compile.

    a lot, this is a conglomerate autocom and delphi, only wow is not up to the truck and delphi and autocom you also have a weight at the same head. Of course, I'm talking about a pirate, because the legal one has a lot more functions. In wow you also have descriptions of some activities great in drawings.

    Colleagues from WOW also have another WabcoWurth BOX 2.0 head and it also makes trucks, trailers, buses and passenger cars, it is expensive at the start but it has the original WABCO and Haldex software now apparently ZF will still be with them and it is the only such head on the market. ... and I also cost :)

    Added after 7 [hours] 37 [minutes]:

    After that WOW is Autocom one-to-one only enriched with autodata and delphi is a bit poorer. Wurth is the owner of the autocom brand. There will be another White Label device and when it comes to diagnostics itself, WOW is very ok. Its clones in almost every workshop only the clone is 500 MB and the original almost 9 GB ......

    You can buddy and compared to universal devices is really ok. You can count on guys from this department, they help even if you have a current license. After the ordinary Wurtt representative visits you, you can order a presentation from him and they will come to you.

    As you noticed, wow is the original and progenitor of the Chinese crap series.
    Poor vehicle libraries, even poorer options for deleting autoadaptation, coding almost unavailable.
    The DPF burning of the VW group as such, in PSA you can forget.
    Four years ago a lady called them and promised to exchange a probe for a new model communicating with CAN !!! Moon tailor-made success, CAN available.
    With Diagbox, Clip and Stardiagnosis at my disposal, I gave up, thanking you for selling me a dummy full of empty files in 2010.
    Piracy under the names Autocom and Delphi full of errors-the same as wow.
    Most parameters are missing from reading live data.
    There are no complete error lists.
    No transcription of errors, not even assigned to the OBD list, which results in the inability to find error information in other sources.
    No error descriptions (it's probably a small problem though)
    No reliable error descriptions, verified error has incorrect or incomplete description.
    Coding, in practice, there are none.
    Autoadaptation deletion, most not done. I gave up trying when the problem with EGR remained in Renault.

    Do you want universal equipment? Reliable enough?
    There is Gutman in the light and full version, the more picky will find others, and 500+ will not be thrown away.
    Best regards.

    It all depends on the quality, when you buy the cheapest version for PLN 300, what you expect ;-) In addition, not all available versions of the programs work the same, they are better and worse, you will come across "cumulation" - crap equipment + poor program and this is how it looks ;-)

    A small detail, I paid the invoice from the representative "free" updates in which almost nothing came. Customer no. And access to updates from the server .... looks like the original. The price you have given multiply a lot ... This is in the basement.

    Added after 3 [minutes]:

    For this no support and all the shortcomings will "remove" in the near future. I gave them up.
    It motivated me to get real diagnostic equipment.

    Maybe the WOW version is good, just don't use it. In my experience, this equipment does more than Bosch KTS and is more extended when it comes to configurations. Kts, for example, makes regulations, at the end it was carried out successfully and nothing happens with the car. And wow he did it by hand and adapted the lamps in F11.
    Delphi and autocom also give advice the latest.

    Hello

    And how do I have such a question.
    I have WOW 5.00.12 installed in the English version, how to change the interface language to PL. I still have version 5.00.8 in the PL version - is it possible to replace any language files?

    In Wow 5.0012 en you can change the language to Polish while keeping the program database and graphic data of version 5.0012. If you are interested I can provide a step by step procedure. you need the Polish version 5.008 installed on the same computer.

    Thanks for the answer. Please tell me what should I do? I have installed versions 5.00.8R2PL and 5.00.12ENG on one computer.

    The note gives the answer.
    wow 5.00.12 en to wow 5.0012 pl
    = copy next. files from the version
    5.00.8 en:

    -date
    -devic_snoper_module

    copy / paste to the program 5.00.12 en / replace the files in the destination
    run program 5.00.12 en with the normal assigned abbreviation.
    should start in Polish. re-updating codes required. with keygen up to version 5.00.12.
    If the program does not open in Polish, copy from version 5.00.8 START WOW to the program 5.00.12.
    Let me know how it went.

    and now version 5.00.12 pl will be broadcast on the net

    Thanks.
    Everything went very nicely. Of course, after this operation you need to reactivate (v 5.00.8). But everything is OK and it is 5.12 PL.
    Thanks a lot.

    What kind of pucks does the colleague mean. If you have v5. 00.8 you enter the data file in the folder where the program is installed, i.e. the c / wow5 drive. 00.8pl / date and with date you manually copy the files: V_Labels Blob, V_Labels Xml, V_Labels Data. ADDITIONALLY, Pd_Languages xml and Pd_Languages data. And you paste these files and change them into the same date of the Wow v. 5.00.12 version. And you have the Polish language. The programs must be on the same computer. For some success, you enter the folder where it is 5.00.12, open the file start_wow lax with a notepad, the one that has 2 KB and in the Language = item you enter the value 15, deleting the value that was there, ie 2. You close, save the changes and you have everything in Polish.

    Of course, this is a reheated topic and it has changed a bit. The latest released version is v. 5.00.15. Update from file. But more on that later.

    Generated by the language model.

    FAQ

    TL;DR: The original WOW! 5.00.19 install is 9 GB—18× larger than the 500 MB clone folders [Elektroda, Loktajew, post #18163870] “It all depends on the quality” [Elektroda, leonov, post #18219757] Follow the proven file-swap method to migrate safely. Why it matters: Bigger databases mean more vehicles recognised and fewer failed service jobs.

    Quick Facts

    • Original WOW! 5.00.19 ISO ≈ 9 GB [Elektroda, Loktajew, post #18163870] • Typical clone package ≈ 0.5 GB [Elektroda, Loktajew, post #18163870] • Keygen activation capped at v5.00.12 [Elektroda, wocar-1, post #18865051] • Latest leaked build: v5.00.15 offline update [Elektroda, wocar-1, post #19658514] • Required PL language files: V_Labels + Pd_Languages [Elektroda, wocar-1, post #18865051]

    Can I just copy the cs_modulediagnosis folder to jump from 5.00.12 to 5.00.19?

    No. Security checks tie database files to the compiled executable; a straight folder swap ends with licence errors or crashes [Elektroda, viper1989, #16984283; Elektrode, leonov, #16984308].

    What is the safe 3-step method to change WOW! 5.00.12 English into Polish?

    1. Install 5.00.8 PL alongside 5.00.12 EN.
    2. Copy V_Labels and Pd_Languages from 5.00.8 PL \date folder into 5.00.12 EN \date, replacing existing files.
    3. Edit start_wow.lax, set Language=15, then reactivate using the v5.00.12 keygen [Elektroda, wocar-1, post #18865051]

    How do I stop the endless “update available” pop-up?

    Locate update.exe (exact name varies) in the WOW! program folder and rename its extension (e.g., update.bak). The launcher then skips the check [Elektroda, leonov, post #18302210]

    How big is the original database compared with clones?

    The official 5.00.19 ISO measures about 9 GB, whereas common clone packages are around 500 MB—an 18-fold difference [Elektroda, Loktajew, post #18163870] Larger size equals more vehicle models and wiring diagrams.

    Why do cheap clones miss functions like DPF burn-off or coding?

    Budget interfaces ship with cut-down databases and low-quality firmware; missing PIDs, error texts and service routines are common failure points [Elektroda, jurekk55, post #18214891]

    Can I activate 5.00.15 or 5.00.19 with the old keygen?

    No. The public keygen only generates licences up to 5.00.12. Later builds need new certificates or online activation which are not publicly leaked [Elektroda, wocar-1, post #18865051]

    What alternatives exist for a reliable universal scanner under €1 000?

    Consider Gutmann mega macs PC Light; it offers stable OBD coverage and regular updates for roughly €900 [Elektroda, jurekk55, post #18214891]

    Is the diagnostics market growing?

    Yes. Global automotive diagnostic scan-tool revenue is projected to reach US $8.8 billion by 2026, a 5.8 % CAGR [MarketsandMarkets, 2021].

    Edge case: WOW! launches but live data is blank—what now?

    Blank parameters often mean mismatched firmware vs. database. Re-flash the VCI with the matching firmware version and ensure the 9 GB database is intact; clones under 1 GB frequently fail here [Elektroda, leonov, post #18219757]

    Will the program name show 5.00.12 after the PL language swap?

    Yes. Only interface language changes; the executable and version banner stay at 5.00.12, so full functionality remains [Elektroda, Romanek100, post #18865379]
