Problem deleting previously saved tracks

How did you save them? Did you send them from BaseCamp? Check in the GPX folder to see what is there, also you may find some in the Archive folder. If BaseCamp is saying they are there they will be there somewhere

I initially saved tracks on the Montana on a daily basis while traveling. The result was tracks named with a date code. Upon return home I copied these saved tracks into a list in Basecamp and renamed them in the list. I then deleted the tracks from the Montana in "Track Manager". At that point, these tracks were indeed missing from "Track Manager". However when the Montana was reconnected to the PC, the deleted tracks reappeared in the "Internal Storage" folder for the GPS shown in Basecamp. Deleting them from the "Internal Storage" folder produced only temporary results because they reappear in the "Internal Storage" folder shown in Basecamp whenever Basecamp is restarted, but they do not show up on the Montana itself..

The tracks do not show up as being archived on the Montana either.

I've checked for all GPX files on the Montana and these tracks are not there. I suspect that the Montana has archived tracks in some other consolidated file format.

A few months ago I had occasion to perform a master reset to the GPS for another reason and that action did indeed clear other remaining tracks that I had been unable to eradicate. I dislike doing it that way because of the many personalized settings in need of restoration.

Thanks for the response

Well something is weird as I don't have that issue with my Montana. If the files aren't in the GPX folder or the Archive folder then there is nowhere else they would be. BaseCamp can only show what's on your device. You could try doing a search on your Montana for *.gpx files to see if there are any stray gpx files that BC is using.

Did you save the tracks and clear the current track log or just save tracks? If you never clear the track log, then it will eventually be archived automatically unless you have changed the track log settings. All archived tracks will appear in BaseCamp under the Devices>Internal Storage. These auto-archived logs usually contain more than one track. If I recall correctly, BaseCamp will break an auto-archived track log into individual tracks when viewed in BaseCamp. I would suggest viewing the current log and any archived track logs on your device (not thru BaseCamp) and see if those tracks appear when you opt to view on map.

Glad you resolved it. I'll close this thread.
