If the simple name didn't work, try the full vеrsiоn vеrsiоn domain name. It is almost always one of these two:

Code:

bimmerscene.com

or

Code:

www.bimmerscene.com

Important Note:
Make sure you are using 7-Zip to extract the files.
Sometimes the built-in Windows extractor or older versions of WinRAR report "wrong password" when the actual problem is that they don't understand the compression method used in the archive.

1. Download and install the latest version of 7-Zip.
2. Right-click the file -> 7-Zip -> Extract Here.
3. Enter the password.

www.bimmerscene.com working. Thanks. Although I used that password from keyboard, it didn't work. But the password copied from you, works. Strange.

Glad you got in!

That copy/paste difference is usually down to a hidden space character at the end or a subtle typo that the eye misses.

Now that you have the files extracting, remember the previous advice: keep your antivirus disabled during the installation. This ensures those critical EDIABAS and OBD files don't get eaten again, and you won't have to manually copy them over later.

Let us know if the clean install solves the connection issues.

If you are looking for pure stability and ease of installation, the "Golden Standard" right now is ISTA+ 4.32.15.

Here is why it is highly recommended over the newer builds:

• No Loader Required: This was the last version that didn't require a complex launcher/loader or a generated liсеnsе key. You just install it, apply a simple registry fix, and it runs natively.
• Stability: It is extremely stable for E-series and F-series cars.
• Less Bloat: It runs faster on older laptops compared to the 4.4x and 4.5x branches.

The only downside is that the database is from late 2021. If you are working on cars manufactured in 2023 or 2024, you will need the newer versions (like 4.41.xx or the 4.55 you are trying now).

But if you are mostly working on E, F, and early G series, 4.32.15 is the most headache-free version you can get. Many of us keep a copy of 4.32.15 installed just for reliability.
