So, part of the reason I spent the $69.99 for the adapter was so I could add a new key for my 2019 Ford Escape. An attempt to this yields:

"Not available under trial extended license"

What was the purpose of adding the 2 extended month license if it doesn't allow key programming!!! Arghhhh.

…redo the email address. I’ve had ForScan since December, and just keep renewing the trial. 🙄

It isn't about the trial. I went through the trial extended license request and pasted it in no problem:

forscan is saying that this is not a good enough license. It wants a paid extended license, not a trial extended license!

Apparently it isn't an option, I've read they were not selling it anymore?

You cannot program keys on these newer vehicles with FORScan. You can't even do it with FDRS with a DIY user login. Unless something has changed and AFAIK, keys can only be programmed with FDRS with a Ford dealer login or with NFTSA credentials for vehicles on Sync 4 and possibly some Sync 3 vehicles, too.
