VinPower is a third party Utility that ITrack uses to be able to decode VINs.

In the host.ini file there is a "vinpower" section where the path of the vin power files can be specified. This location is "...\<ITrack Directory>\VinPower\" on most peoples installs of ITrack although for some it may still be "...\<ITrack Directory>\data\" (if this is the case you should consider moving it to "Vinpower").
