JERRYBIGJ

Map update available on Garmin Express. I updated 6 units and had to keep clicking install now 2 or 3 times on each unit then it installed ok. Then when clicking install to computer and it started activating maps for a couple of seconds it would get an error message installing update. Kept clicking install to computer several times until finally the windows installer appeared. This happened on both my windows 11 laptop and windows 10 desktop. I am using latest version for express 7.28.0. Anyway all 6 are loaded with 2027.10.

    I only did two devices (nuvi 265 and nuvi 2689) and had no issues.  That being said, I always right click my GE shortcut and select run as administrator.

    This doesn't work for me when installing a map to my PC.  It is not necessary when updating the map on device my zumo XT but if I do it when installing the map to the PC the map gets installed unlocked for the Admin PC user but locked for me, the logged in user (a user with standard privileges).  I must first elevate my user privileges to administrator then do the map installation to PC, the change my user privileges back to standard.  Garmin installs the map so that it is usable by the credentialed user (administrator) but not for the logged in users.  This has been going on for years and is only a problem for folks like me who chose to not operated their PC logged in as a user with administrator privileges.  Garmin needs to get their heads out of the butt and be attentive to the logged in user, or prompt for which PC user will be using the map and install accordingly, unlocked!
