Programming is now possible only with ISTA 4? Not IstaP - JD_RFTR - 04-09-2020

I bet many of you knows this message. I have installed the latest 4.22.31 Ista D and Ista P 3.67.1. When launching Ista P it connects and then a messajge like this informs me that ”Programming is now possible only with ISTA 4? Not IstaP”. 

Can anyone explain more? 
Do I need an older Ista P? 
How can I programm with Ista D? Such options are blanked, can not be clicked

The last version of ISTA/P that could program F series cars is 3.64. This version is still available for download if you search for it. If you get stuck give me a shout.

Thank you so much for your help. I have 3.67 so basically now it won't help me too much, or I am wrong?

Hi 

Now programming for F-series is included in Ista+  (ISTA-D, ISTA4), and as you mention already have installed;
so you don't need anymore ISTA-P for flash.
Of course you can still use ISTA-P to program E-chassis, however WinKfP can flash single module instead od whole car like ISTA-P.

You need full sdp installed to program with ista/d

Okay, I get it. The point is that on 4.19.31 I have only the ISTA installed but full SDP, and can not use programming. On the 4.22. I have the ISTA P Also 3.67 but no full SDP. Will try this out. Many thanks!
