I got a VT1-550 kit and wanted to get the ECU file issues sorted before installing it.

I appreciate you looking into it - I think it's an issue on the ECU end and not the WIN10.
Where was your ESS tune/cable purchased from? If from us, we can get you a base file to load. Otherwise, you will need to contact your reseller or ESS directly to obtain a base file to flash over your existing tune.

As an alternative, any independent shop with autologic can revert the DME to stock form.
