    When uninstalling Garmin Express select:

    •Elevated Installer
    •Garmin Update Services (skip if not present)
    •ANT Drivers Installer x64

    This program will need to be run again for each item on the list to be uninstalled.

    Then install Garmin Express directly from http://download.garmin.com/omt/express/B/GarminExpressInstaller.exe

    Hi, I'm trying to update Express from 4.1.22.0 to 4.1.24.0 under Windows 7 and I keep getting the message "Download Failed" Try Again about 40% though the download.

    Does anyone have a solution for this? Cheers

    thanks, tried all these suggestions and more, this has stumped myself and garmin technical, even emailed the express logs file to garmin, looks like a tom tom from now.
