Map update 2025.10 not showing up in Garmin Express

Today was announced that topoactive maps 2025.10 will replace the older 2024.20 cycling map. These have a annoying bug where edge *30 devices cannot reroute or route to a saved location, unless popularity routing option was disabled. (This was not the case with 2024.10) 

So I was happy to read that the bug was confirmed and solved in 2025.10.

I succesfully updated my Fenix 7 watch to 2025.10 but after connecting my edge530 I get a "Synchronisation with Garmin Connect failed" error, and only the trailforks map is showing up. No 2025.10 update but also the currently installed 2024.20 map is not shown anymore. 

Garmin Express is up to date 7.25.0 + , edge firmware 9.75 too.

I hope this will be solved in the comming days but nevertheless I wanted to let people know that there's an issue going on with this update. (From my perspective)

  • I mentioned earlier in this thread that I found 20Gig of diskusage after updating. I think: phase 1 download a compressed installer package; phase 2, extract the package on the local storage; and phase 3, copy the extracted files to the device.

    Don't forget express will not clean the used space so reclaim diskspace yourself. 

  • Got a mail from Garmin support today to format my Garmin map on my computer. Followed every step. Updated the topo active again but still te same problem. Every time I connect to Garmin Express it says to update.
