Unable to upload TCX File

Trying to upload a TCX file to create a route in Garmin. Gone to activities and tried to upload the file and I get the following error message "An error occurred with your upload. Please try again.". Any advice?

Source of the GPX file is

Also, just to make sure you're importing the course correctly (a bit different from importing an activity):

Go to https://connect.garmin.com/modern/courses
Click import

Browse for your file or drop it here...

Click Get Started
When finished, sync to your Garmin via the mobile app or Garmin Express

Find a link to the original GPX file and the new TCX file.

Tried your suggested approach and got the error message "Your course cannot be imported. Something is wrong with this file.". If you need anything else just let me know.

Same as Former Member. GPX file uploads with no problems. What is the origin of the TCX file? Do you necessarily need it if it's the same course as the GPX file?

Thanks everyone for your help. TCX was generated online as I was getting error messages every time I uploaded the GPX file. Not sure what happened there. Main thing is...I get to do the walk now! Thanks again.
