I have installed Garmin Express on my Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro multiple times and tried to get it to to work with no luck. The program appears to open (the icon shows up in the task bar), but no window opens and when you click on it nothing opens up. I haven't been able to find anyone with a similar issue here but was hoping someone had some advice.
I think that the issue is caused by the default scaling (DPI setting), not the actual resolution. However, here is an easy way to get around it:
Open Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Escape)
Under Apps, Expand Garmin Express (32 bit) (Windows 8 only)
Right-click Garmin Express
Click Maximize (this opens Express in full screen which looks terrible)
Drag the gray bar at the top of the express window to leave full screen mode
Once you have completed these steps, Garmin Express should launch correctly in the future as the config file will be updated. I have created a case for this issue to see if there is any way to keep it from happening.
Thanks for the response. I found an old copy of GE (version 3.2.29) which works fine. Really only wanted to get GE to set the fenix's wifi; i worked around everything else via the mobile app (widgets) or webupdater (firmware).
