Activity Logs still showing in BaseCamp after clering Travel History

Former Member over 7 years ago

Hi guys, My GPS is the Zumo 595 and I'm using BaseCamp 4.6.2
I would like to delete the activity logs that show up in Internal Storage because they lend for a very cluttered map after a while.
I have already Cleared Travel History through Settings/Device/Clear Travel History and Apps/Where I've Been/Clear Travel History
But this information continues to show up in BaseCamp under Devices/Zumo 595/Internal Storage
What am I missing? :)

Regards James

Ok figured it out. Used windows explorer to delete .gpx files in This PC\zumo 595\Internal Storage\GPX\Archive
However its a bit strange that they would keep this archive after you delete the travel history…

Not sure, have you rebooted (a full switch off then switch on) rather than just placed your Zumo in standby mode since deleting them?

Thanks for your reply. I didn't know there was a standby mode, I think I've been turning it off fully every time, but just to be sure I unplugged the battery for a while this time. There is still no change as you can see from the attached screen shot. Are there possibly cache files somewhere on my PC?ciq.forums.garmin.com/.../1236727.jpg

However its a bit strange that they would keep this archive after you delete the travel history, and then choose to display it in Base Camp, it's got to cause confusion for others too.

Ah yes. If you don't clear them regularly you will end up with archived tracks. My next suggestion was going to be to empty the GPX folder.
