Had same issue on 2 PC and a colleague too recently, only solution we found was to reinstall PC.

This happens when you are in a rush and force close ISTA and or the Launcher.
Just wait. This won't happen again.

Hopefully someone can come up with a quicker solution than reinstalling PC

No.system restore is off. It's a hdd I bought with ista etc installed etc
By the way I never force closed anything
Anyone got that procurement data download?

So you are missing the "DataProcurement" folders inside ISTA-P\BMW\ and ISTA-P\Taurus\ folders?


You need to replace those folders back, but with the same version of your ISTA-P.

Right, this is a known problem of ISTA-P launcher - it messes up some files upon quick close of the ISTA.
Proven solution - make a backup of the ISTA-P files (without heavy data) and putting them back in case of crash.

Original instructions from long ago.

How to shutdown ISTA-P.

1.
Ensure programming/coding has finished. Then click "X" button in top corner of screen.

2.
Click "End session" and "Display session overview".

3.
Wait for the session to clear from the session overview list (10-15 seconds). Then close down the ISTA/P window. The loader will then shutdown everything safely. Alternatively, after session has cleared, use the shutdown button on the ISTA/P notification icon.

Although not very progressive thinking... I just use Loader v4.9 to prevent this happening.

It happened to me once when i installed Esys 3.29. After that ista-p won't start anymore. After resetting the settings of the launcher it worked again.

Has anyone got these?
