[EDITED]
Resolved with help from the guys over on the Discord group. It was quite simple in the end, seems I had a corrupt MicroSD card and that's all.
Key takeaways
1. Ensure you have a good memory card. I borrowed one from my dashcam, but I think it wasn't geared for such heavy use and probably broke down quickly. Maybe better to use an SD card (and not MicroSD with adaptor like I did)
2. Use the original Duke and Congo activator file. There's a few modified versions out there.
3. No need to update your VIN or VCRN. The dummy VIN and VCRN will do the trick
4. Don't extract a the activator .7z file extension through Windows Explorer. Use 7zip instead.
5. MK7 community rocks!!
