Hidden menus?

Are there any hidden menus in the nav system? I know there were on my Scions.
I have pressed and held Menu then switched the parking lights on off 5 times. That let me run some tests. Is there anyway to make adjustments to the audio too?

The Toyota TIS software/cable can be purchased on Ebay for 50-75 bucks. From there you can hook it up to your laptop and get to pretty much every setting the car has.

Is there anyway to install this on a new computer with 64bit system? I want to get it but don't have an old computer. Just one with Windows 10 64bit system

Also has any of you been able to turn on a setting where it lets you roll your windows up by holding the lock bottom on your keyfob? The dealer was only able to turn on windows down with unlock

You can install it no problem Windows is backwards compatible, as long as you get the 64 bit version. Feel free to PM me if you have any other questions. No point in getting a computer science degree if you can't put it to use.

Only way to roll windows up from the outside is by using the mechanical key. If personalized setting is programmed (can only be programmed by dealer without software interface) is to insert mechanical key into driver's side lock, turn and hold for 2 seconds, this will open / close windows and moonroof (depending on turn direction) if equipped and programmed.
