Just in case anyone runs into this issue, as per m-chan68's tip, Forscan will work, download it's free, then you upgrade its like 20 bucks and then you get the OBD adapter, it's like 50 bucks, it works amazing, enabled us to remove the factory transmission numbers and enter the new replacement transmission numbers, it even confirmed the transmission had 53k miles like the seller claimed, awesome, truck has been from NY to Florida and back no issues !! Best 70 bucks I ever spent and you'd be surprised how much you can do with Forscan.

I have For scan, IDS as well as FDRS downloaded on my own personal laptop as well as my own VCM II. I have found Forscan to be an excellent tool to use on many occasions, and dare I say even better than IDS or FDRS. With Forscan, I was able to permanently disable the global opening feature on both my wife's Explorer and my F-250 which I wouldn't have been able to do with IDS or FDRS.
