I think they still 'prefer' that you use the Garmin Express utility to automagically sync, but they can get in the sea. So they eventually relented, and put the upload button back on the website, where you can browse to the device and select what you want to upload. fit files Ģ) Privacy: it would upload *everything* on your device, whether you liked it or not!
This caused a bit of a fuss, for 2 reasons:ġ) You could not upload arbitrary. You were meant to use the Garmin Express software, which was always running in the background.Īs soon as you plugged your device in, this would automatically 'sync' everything on your device to the Garmin Connect website.
So some years back, they updated the website to the 'modern' theme, and the Upload button was gone. Hide the file system! There is no file system! They wanted it to be plug-and-play, it just works by magic. This was not seen as the 'modern' way having to browse a file system! There was an Upload button, and you browsed to the Activities folder on your device. On a PC, Back In The Day, you would upload your rides to the Garmin Connect website. As best I recall, it previously knew about devices even when I had registered them on another PC.īut in short it looks like a corrupted local file, or something in my account, that Express choked on. Maybe it will get around to it, who knows. Why Express doesn't check with my Garmin account that it has all the right devices, once I've signed in, is another matter. It still hasn't remembered my Fenix 5 watch, my mother's older car GPS that's registered to my account because she doesn't do this kind of thing (and needs map updates), and so on, but at least Express works.

It's now updating the Edge Touring Plus's maps. fredlinux over 8 years ago I was running Windows 7 plus Garmin Express with FR 305 flawless. I connected the GPS, and Express asked me to sign in with my Garmin account. Success! Express started, but had forgotten all my devices. So I nuked the folder, on the basis that it couldn't do any harm or lose anything really important. I'd already removed and reinstalled Express, supposedly removing all the data as well (on principle, in case it were a corruption). I noticed that requestcache-log.db had an older date than today.

In checking that even stopping Defender Firewall had not helped, I had a look at the files in C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Garmin\express\ Garmin Express is a desktop application designed to manage all your Garmin devices from a centralized platform, making it easy to update maps, upload activities to Garmin Connect, back up data and transfer routes and information between devices. Not the right answer, but did indirectly lead to my making some progress.
