Malformed .fit file from Garmin Forerunner 35

Hi, 

After a run today my run would not upload to the Garmin Connect app, other data is uploading such as steps so it is synced properly. When I tried to upload it from my watch, using my computer as a .fit file, to Garmin Connect or Strava it comes up as "malformed" file. I've seen recommendations on here for fit file repair tools but unfortunately they won't work on the computer I have at home (only a Chromebook). Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks :) A4QA4727.FIT.zip

    while waiting for the repair report back here :

    • the amount of FIT files in the ACTIVITY folder on your FR35
      • (when folder contains many fit files time for a backup/clean operation)
    • the amount of FREE memory on your FR35
      • (when low FREE memory, check above and below answer)
    • are you a MAC user
      • (empty BIN on device)
    • was this activity with a long duration or distance compared to previous activities
      • ( long ones use more memory )
    • was this activty with a pause somewhere during the activity

    happy & safe sporting
