ProEcu on Desktop PC

Hi,
Do you know if it's possibile to install proecu on a desktop pc? Now is installed on my laptop and i've used the ecutek downloader which asks you to connect the obd at a certain point... For obvious reasons i cannot do that on my house pc
Thanks!

when it says to connect the obd, it really mean just to connect the usb side of the Vehicle Interface a. k. a the cable
Per ecutek licence usage, you can install your kit onto 3 different PCs

Ecutek only wants you to connect the obd cable to computer not the car during install


It just want to see the cable and dongle whenever ive instalked, not a connection to car
