    Windows 10 pc using wireless router. sync by pressing button on vivofit. Now I can't sync at all even after downloading the software. I am the administrator.

    I recommend performing a full uninstall using Microsoft Fixit. The instructions to do so are in the following FAQ:

    .msi file not found when updating a Garmin Software Application

    If this does not resolve the issue, I recommend contacting Product Support by phone for further assistance.

    loose data with the uninstall??

    I just upgraded to Windows 10 and my vivofit is not syncing. By un-installing & re-installing, will you loose any of your history? or because it's browser based, as long as you continue to use your currently log-in, you'll still have your history?
  • History is by account so you'll be fine. You won't lose anything.
