Anybody else experiencing this, 2 out of 4 runs in last 5 days watch has not recorded any change in elevation or temperature. Have some experience with this from my previous 745, so I did a soft reset, updated altimeter by GPS when it happened the first time.
There is a work around to resolve the issue until Garmin makes a fix.
On your watch just add an elevation field to your activity.
Strangely it seemed to resolve the issue with temperature flat lining too.

Been happening to me since Aug 4th, which is two software updates ago (20.21 20.23 and now 20.26. Considering that it seemingly only happens on run activities, I might try a 'trail run' on the road tomorrow…
Same on my Garmin 955 but it only started this month with the previous update. So same problem, different update. This is a conspiracy!
2nd day in a row, email sent to support, looks like the sensor is gone
There seems to be no rhyme nor reason why it happens, I don't know if the sensor 'kicks in' when you start an activity
But there are days when my floor count seem pretty low compared to the usual.
3rd day in a row now, having read other posts it may indeed be a firmware issue, as opposed to a hardware issue with the sensor. In saying that, where once it was random it now seems to be a permanent problem.
On a side note, can we use GPS rather than the watch barometer? My hill score is shot to *** as the watch doesn't seem to know I'm actually running hills (training for some hilly trail runs) don't mind about the temperature, but I would like my run up an actual mountain to be recorded as a run up a mountain, rather than along a beach.
Still happening, heard nothing back from support, so the wait begins for them to release a firmware fix for the problem
