XDOS DAS Call WIS NET F6 (HELP)- WIS is not available Solution

Problem:
Update VI. Fix “WIS is not available on this system” error when click F6 in DAS ver 1.1 for 2019-09.
Purpose:
if you click F6 in DAS then you get “WIS is not available on this system” error, you have to apply this fix to get the help documents in wis.
As there is an known obstacle on installing wis standalone on Xentry, you can use wis net as replacement of it. But when you click F6, you will get this famous sentence “WIS is not available on this system”



Notes:
1. I change the “s” file only but to sustain compatibility i include the cnt too.
2. It should be able to be used for DAS call WIS standalone in Xenty XP, but i have not tested it yet. i don’t have the Xentry xp system right now.
3. You have to run wis net before run xentry.
4. DIY, No Support, All Risks are yours, it is for education only.
Compatibility: ALL XDOS version, Xentry xp (not check yet).
Vehicle: passenger car, smart, transp/van.

Xentry Help and DAS F6 Call WIS added fix for 2017-05.rar

Update:
it’s still valid for xdos 2018-12 with wis 2018-11. when you update java,
