Lost SC8 Watch face on Fenix 5X

I permanently lost the watch face today. When trying to re-select it, I get an IQ! instead. Completely removing and re-installing it did not change anything. Is this a problem with the WF or with Garmin Express?

The same happened to me with SC8. Removing the watchface and reinstalling worked in my case. (This was on 4.1 - now using 4.16)

I will try that but in the meantime, I am using another WF.

That is what I am doing too. It works after reinstalling, but I found that the Garmin (built in) watchfaces serve my needs as well (even if less info) and they use less power. I prefer the less power. If I need more details about activities etc. I have various vidgets or apps for that

I made a last attempt this morning and it worked. 1) Deleted completely the WF via Garmin Express and sync; 2) Powered off both fenix 5x and laptop 3) Download again the SC8 4) Re-install and re-sync. Did the same thing yesterday and it did not work. Today, it worked. I am dumfounded and speechless.
