A: GDS2 v 100.0.00700 is European version for Opel up to 2021 and Chevy ( EU models only ) up to 2017 ( public.servicebox-parts )
GDS2 22.4.05000 is Global version that cover all the rest including Opel up to 2018 and GM Global ( NA models ) up to 2024 and the future.
This Gobal GDS2 version is the one from GM Techline. ( acedelcotds )
Both version are the last on for their regions.
Q: is this only good for europe? I am looking for gds2 for USA (NA).
A: Take care here it is EU GDS2 version including EU packages. This is not for NA/USA use.
OV GM Global is diagnostic package for Chevrolet Europe not for USA models.
But the download link adds a GDS2 Special 6 in 1 edition (with US inside) + new drivers + different Tech2Win versions.

A: Scanmatik as all others are passthru devices. They work in GDS but to be able to use tech2win you need to have a special driver. That kind of driver was only aproved by gm to a short list of devices except theirs, like cardaq or mangoose but not to others.
Q: Can i Use GDS2 with Autel J2534 passthru?
A: Yes, you can.
Q: How do you know which MDI Manager to install? I dont think we are supposed to install all of them?

A: GDS2 standalone and GDS2 in Techline works as well but in offline mode.
Q: Do we use the gds install to run these ones in the folder as selecting them through the browse doesn’t work.
A: TRY
*copy deliverable folders (DO NOT EXTRACT) here: C:\ProgramData\GDS 2\PersistentData\Downloads\DataBackups
*extract the deliverables you want and only copy the .xml files and install them here: C:\ProgramData\GDS 2\PersistentData\Downloads AND also install here: C:\ProgramData\GDS 2\PersistentData\Downloads\Deliverables
**when you go to manage diagnostic packages before doing the above you can click browse and you find the deliverable you want to run and then gds2 should restart automatically after gds2 restarts look at the lower left corner of the screen it shows you what version of gds2 you are running and what deliverable you are using.

A: No, unzip the keygen (file+folder) and run it.
Q: Cannot download gds2 files?
A: If anyone sees that can’t download the files, open a free yandex account with 3 clicks, import the files to your newly created account and then download them from there.
After you finished with your download then you can remove them from there and like this you will get an account to use in the future for other shares also.
