>                   "On Wednesday afternoon, Nov. 12th, Ford informed us that FJDS 132.04 had been posted and was available for download. According to                     Ford, this update should resolve the login/file download issues.

> Additionally, Ford will be requiring that PCs used for their tools have 8GB of RAM starting in January 2026 and 16GB by the end of                         Q3/beginning of Q4. "

> Since the September update there has been several issues with the FJDS and IDS software. Some of those issues were resolved by uninstalling the previous version of the FJDS software and then installing the latest version.

> Since there were problems the last time with the FJDS update version, I recommend to be proactive and update your FJDS before you need it to program, and consider uninstalling FJDS then installing the newest version as a clean installation. This should prevent any issues that was experienced with the September update. 
> 
> Now about the change in RAM requirement. Hold off on buying a new computer for now. Unless you're already considering upgrading your laptop to something new, keep using what you have. Many of you already meet the 8GB RAM requirement for the first of 2026. And the 16 GB RAM for the later part of 2026 likely is not a concern. While we don't have the software yet, requirements like these are usually due a top tier software recommendations. The FJDS software should continue to run on the 8GB of RAM most of you have now.
