Hi Bin. Unfortunately, after a few seconds of starting Istagui, this window appears indicating a bug. I've reinstalled several times, following your instructions exactly, but every time Istagui stops starting. Why do you think this happens? Obviously, I'm asking for help, not just from you, but from everyone. Thanks.
installed on another PC same result
 
I fixed the problem you need to add ISPIDATA C:\ProgramData to your environment variables.
Great. I currently have 4.57.12 installed. If it gives me problems, I'll try reinstalling 4.57.21 using your solution. Thanks anyway.

BMW ISTA+ Standalone 4.57.21
Diagnostics + Programming workflow-ready setup • EN/DE


A practical ISTA+ Standalone 4.57.21 package prepared for everyday workshop-style use.
If you’re building a stable BMW diagnostic laptop or want a clean baseline for troubleshooting, this release keeps things simple: ISTA archive + config + install notes, plus a pointer for matching programming data.

Package contents
  • ISTA.rar — main ISTA+ package archive
  • ISTA+Standalone-4.57.21 config — configuration folder for the standalone setup
  • instal.txt — install notes / quick instructions
  • 4.57.21_PSdZData.7z.torr*** — reference pointer for matching PSdZData (programming data)
Languages
  • German
  • English


Works with
  • ✅ D-CAN
  • ✅ ENET
  • ✅ ICOM



Why 4.57.21?
Because it’s a solid middle-ground build that’s popular for mixed fleets:
  • Good balance of features vs. “random new build surprises”
  • Comfortable for both diagnostics and typical programming workflows (with matching data)
  • A reliable reference version when comparing behavior across setups



Heads-up before you start
  • Use a machine with enough disk space (programming data is large).
  • Run as Admin where required and keep the install path simple.
  • Always pair ISTA+ with the matching PSdZData version for best compatibility.

What is the password, please?
 

Check the folder where you downloaded the files. There is usually a Pass.txt or Instruction.txt file containing the password.

Also, make sure to read the first post of this thread, as the OP often updates the password there.

If the text file is missing, here is the standard procedure for most ISTA+ Standalone packages:

  1. Unblock the Archive: Before extracting, right-click the downloaded .7z or .rar file, go to Properties, check the Unblock box at the bottom right, and click Apply.
  2. Extraction: Extract the contents to the root of your drive (e.g., C:\ISTA). Avoid long folder paths or spaces in the name.
  3. Prerequisites: Navigate to the Tools or Prereqs folder (if present) and install the Visual C++ Redistributables (AIO) and .NET Framework. This is critical; otherwise, it won't launch.
  4. Registry Fix: Find the file named ISTA_Reg_Fix_x64.reg (or similar) in the main folder. Double-click it to merge it into your registry. This tells Windows where the installation is located.
  5. Launch: Go to C:\ISTA\TesterGUI\bin\Release (path may vary slightly depending on the rераск), find ISTAGUI.exe, right-click it, and select Run as Administrator.

If you are using an ENET cable, make sure your Ediabas settings (usually in C:\Ediabas\Bin\ediabas.ini) are set to Interface = ENET.

Hi Bin. Do you know if it's possible to install the Italian language pack in ISTA+ Standalone 4.57.21? I'm asking because I tried adding the two files streamdataprimitive_IT and xmlvalueprimitive_IT to the sqlitedbs folder, but then the launch of ISTA gets stuck at a certain point and won't run any further. I tried with IT 4.37.20, which with a version of the same files modified with SQLiteDatabaseBrowser renaming them IT_4.57.21, but ISTA crashes after a few minutes from startup.
 
Hi Bin. Do you know if it's possible to install the Italian language pack in ISTA+ Standalone 4.57.2...

That approach will not work. You cannot mix language database versions with a different program executable version.

ISTA is very strict about version matching. The TesterGUI.exe for 4.57.21 expects databases specifically structured and tagged for 4.57.21. Using 4.37.20 databases—even if you try to edit internal tags with DB Browser—will cause the crashes and hangs you are experiencing because the internal schema or data structure often changes between versions.

To get Italian working on 4.57.21, you must find the native Italian SQLite files specifically for version 4.57.21.

You need to search for a download that contains the "SQLiteDBs" pack for 4.57.21 that includes these files:
  • streamdataprimitive_IT.sqlite
  • xmlvalueprimitive_IT.sqlite
Once you obtain the correct files for your specific version, just drop them into your \ISTA\SQLiteDBs\ folder. Then, launch ISTA, go to configuration, and select Italian.
