I had things working tolerably well, then a Garmin Explore app update on/about 20 Oct 24 crushed the last shred of usable route functionality. I cannot figure out what is doing on with routes and Garmin Explore. Any insights? Background: I have no problems passing gpx files (waypoints, routes ...

Thanks for those ideas, lkraus . I will rely on my ability to get to the archive periodically rather than to the unsaved tracks log too frequently. Either is a compromise. Player's choice. There are options here and there to share things, like routes. And one of the methods is to "share" to SD card ...

I'm revisiting the details here since I'm fiddling with track histories again. Cruising through Garmin support I found this item which states the same "last 20" track archive approach jfheath et al provided. https://support.garmin.com/en-CA/?faq=1tDxR0iBK84W2kxh5nmEo7&productID=679804&searchQuery ...

Hopping in to flog a dead horse, since I was just in my device and looking at things. Current.gpx used to have tracks in it in older devices (years back). Now, it does not. Apparently because those have been moved to CurrentTrackLog.gpx. I am still confident Current.gpx behaves as it has for a long ...

Just to further flatten the cat, I was very hopeful I'd find 10-15 or even 1-9 under .System, but it seems whatever made them vanish (me or the system) outside .System was mirrored inside. Stand-alone weirdness that Drivelog17.gpx was NOT there but Archive/17.gpx still lives; that was definitely not ...

Current.gpx for a LONG time has been a dump of what's in device memory. It is the net of all imports, on device edits & deletes, etc. Not the last transfer, like Temp.gpx

The device spits it out but never reads from it. If you delete it, next power off the device will spit out a new one.

jfheath I was not aware of the shadow copy in the .System folder. I have not fiddled in there before. Checking there just now, I have Drivelog 16-29, weirdly missing 17. I'm sad to not find 1 - 9 there with a smug look on their kisser. My example confuses me, too. As I've said, there may be a human ...

jfheath , thanks for your follow through. I understand how things can get morphed as they get passed around. Of the history I've got: 1st point 10.gpx is 6/14/22 1st point of 16.gpx is 7/16/22 Last point 27.gpx is 11/10/22 Last point 29.gpx is 11/13/22 The two things I know for sure that I saw were ...

jfheath I was skeptical of the "it's 20" reply. While I'm encouraged to see you revisiting and analyzing the behaviors now, I'm also disappointed that you were posting uncaveated speculation as Gospel. At no point with the XT have I had exactly 20 files (N.gpx) in the archive. A little while ago ...

Hi. Does the zumo XT delete old track archives automatically, BEFORE it gets low on storage space? I'm in Internal Storage > GPX > Archive of my newish zumo XT. I've got numbered tracklog files, e.g. 16.gpx, 17.gpx, up to 29.gpx at the moment. I have PLENTY of storage still available (12.2 GB used ...
