Hi, I made everything according to your guide (nice work again btw ;-)) but unfortunately I did not get the achievement. My progression bar shows that I have completed every code. And I got the achievement for all the investigations as well. I think it just glitched on me. Is there anything known how to solve this. I really don't want to play through the complete game again

There are 16 QR Codes to find in the QR Code Investigation, the locations can be revealed on the map after you unlock every ctOS tower. You then need to go to these locations and scan the Codes. The codes may be split apart on different buildings and only line up to be scanned when viewed from certain cameras.

Once you have scanned all of the QR Codes you will unlock the final mission and then need to complete the final mission to catch the hacker and unlock the achievement. ( You might need to have progressed into Act 3 of the campaign to unlock the final mission)

Locations of the QR Codes and which cameras they can be scanned from are in the video below.

FYI - Not sure if this glitched just for me. The QR code located in "Pawnee" didn't show on the in-game map & it was the last one I needed. I still got it (and the final QR mission) by going there and scanning it however.

Hi, I just wanted to add that you need to finish the 10th mission of act 2 to get the final mission to become available. As I said earlier, the achievement glitched for me and I had to play trough the game again. When I finished the 10th mission in act 2 I got a phone call from this hacker group that made the final mission available.

Videoguide to the Read-only Achievement

The codes can be found on buildings and other structures.
To align the code you need to find the right camera.
Follow the videoguide and you will be done in no time at all

There is 17 QR codes. The last is in an intrusion kind of mission

Hope you find this guide helpful

Je mets une vidéo qui montre comment débloquer les 16 scans. Le 17éme scan est en fait une mission débloquée lors du 16éme scan.
