Setting up BMW Standard Tools on Windows 10 X64

[dbworld4k]

Saw this on M5Board and had to pass it along. It's an extremely simplified self-installer with some minor instructions. Now you can get the software (BMW Coding tool, NCS Expert, INPA, etc) up and running extremely easily even on a Windows 10 machine compatible with X64!

The ONLY thing that users may need to do is reconfigure their COM port to be COM1 after the install, but a Readme file pops up after the install with simple instructions.

I take no credit for composing the package, just sharing it as I know this has been rather elusive on Windows 10 based OS.

The first zip is the executable package. Install away:
Zippyshare.com - EasyBMWTools.zip

The next is the fix to get BMW Coding Tool working, drop the file MSCOMCTL.OCX in the windows\system32 folder (and SySWOW64 if you're on 64bit Windows 10, then reboot): http://www34.zippyshare.com/v/rNEwRZz5/file.html

Replace desktop shortcut for BMW Coding tool with a new shortcut from the BMW Coding Tool directory on C:\ and it will work fine.

Enjoy!

Expert mode profiles for NCS:

Simply paste the contents of the zip (PFL files) into NCS Expert\PFL\

Looks like this is the same EasyBMWTools package:

I think this is where the package originated from, but the download links/registration are invite-only apparently:

And finally I believe this is the M5board thread the OP mentioned:

Not sure if I am doing something incorrectly but I cannot find my car. I see the E90 then not much else after. Is there a best version to use on windows? I have Win 10 and Vitual XP setup. Good with computers just need a little nudge in the right direction. Thanks for the assist.
