I don't have ETKA and it sounds like Elsawin might have a W10 solution.
The only other item is my Bentley manual which uses eBahn software. To be fair I haven't tried running it on W10 other than inside an XP VM under Oracle VirtualBox, but rummaging around online it looks like many have tried but all have failed. There's also an authentication process for any new installation that may no longer be working so maybe I'll stick with Oracle for that, assuming there's a working environment available for my existing VM.

It reminded me that I'm actually allowed 2 installs, and each one can be activated/de-activated 6 times each calendar year. I currently have one licence active, that's the one on XP-SP3 inside VirtualBox. The other being spare I thought "Why not try and activate it on XP-SP3 inside Hyper-V?". So I just did. Doing it offline is equally tortuous to the Microsoft process but it works. Another 10 minutes of tedium! So I now have two working installations of my Bentley D2 A8/S8 manual, one each of VirtualBox and Hyper-V. Due to the way VirtualBox (and hopefully Hyper-V) works you can just move (even replicate) the working VM between systems without further activation.  So it looks like my new/old laptop will be running without Oracle, just native Microsoft. VCDS and Bentley are my main tools. Though to achieve "The Full Monty" I now need to get my hands on native Windows 10 versions of ELSAWIN and ETKA...…….

ETKA 8.2 works fine. I'm sure MJ said she has a version, if not I can find the install for you

 I guess no need to keep prices updated as most D2 parts are NLA Just to add, I removed Elsawin and re-installed it again with just the Audi database (2016). I had to start from scratch and install from 4.0, then 5.0 to 5.3, install the database and then install 6.0. All working fine on Win 10 Pro 1909 EDIT: Now on Windows 10 Pro 20H2 and decided to install ETKA 8.3 which also works native
