Corrupt FIT File Repair Requests

Former Member

Hi,

I would like to load this file into any software, but all of them tell me that it cannot be imported.
For some reason the file is not working (the watch ran out of battery while it was tracking the hike), but I would really like to have it.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

    Thanks Mike, genius! Worked perfectly. How did you fix it?

    hi Jed,

    Using the Fix File Repair Tool which is available from here.

    Fantastic program and very very capable of a wide range of repairs.

    cheers

  • Hi Mike,

    Hope you can help since http://garmin.kiesewetter.nl/ doesn't work anymore, my Edge 820 frozed during a ride and although Garmin Connect can see the entire ride, Strava can only see part of the ride with the same file, so I think the file is corrupted, thanks for your help.

    Hi Mike,

    My garmin turned off mid-ride (edge 810, think it might need to go in the bin.doesnt like me following a course), if this ride could be saved that would be fab,

    thanks

  • Hi there,


    i did a race today and afterwards i tried to upload my workout from my garmin edge 500 and something went wrong... when i plugged into my computer it just kept saying "working"... eventually i unplugged it and tried again. it then recognized it but the file was no longer visible under activities.... i used
    active@undelete and found it in activities but it's status was set to deleted. I was able to recover it with this tool but when i try to upload it to TP it says "cannot parse"... i tried to upload it to your website but that didn't seem to work.

    i was wondering if you mind having a look?

    thanks!

    hi burgeand,

    Your recovered data is highly corrupt and there is nothing that can be done with it.

    cheers

    Hi Mike,

    Unfortunately that didn't work, Strava still only shows part of the ride. I just double checked Garmin Connect and noticed that although the summary shows the total distance and time correctly, the map, and all other data are missing as well, so I am guessing maybe it didn't record anything after all when it frozed... :(
