"Most of the options are different"?

E-Sys 3.27.1 is almost entirely the same as 3.23.4. The main difference is the Read VCM button was renamed to Read ECU. Other than that, I can't think of a single significant difference between the two.

"Step 11: Select CADF (only one with a green Check mark) file under the module you want to read and select “Read Coding Data" is same process for both versions, and nothing about the related picture from 3.24.3 should be any different than 3.27.1.

What are you seeing in the picture that is different?

No, there is no other Guide. It has never been needed nor suggested before.
