No problems with v7.17.0 here. My XT connected fine. No anomalies noted as I reviewed the different functions. I haven't tried installing a map to a PC but have confirmed that the option is there.

I did not use the built-in updater. I downloaded then installed it manually.

It appears that v7.17.0.0 has been pulled by Garmin. On 2023/05/24 at 7:23 PM EST I downloaded v7.17.0.0 from the Garmin Express download website. Just now, 2023/05/26 at 7:06 PM EST I did the download again and received v7.16.3.0.

I just love the way that certain words and phrases continue to evolve to mean something completely different from what they used to mean.

Decimate, 110%, Pigs Ear, State of the Art, Via, Trip, Shorter, Faster, Testing, ........

Just checked and v7.17.0.0 is the latest update for Windows.

You must have upgraded before Garmin reverted back to 7.16.3. I did, and see the same as you but folks who didn't are seeing 7.16.3 as "up to date". Apparently GE doesn't look for a version mismatch, just whether the installed one is older than the one they have on their server. I suspect that we should do a manual download/reinstall once Garmin re-releases 7.17.0.0. Hopefully they'll release it as a different version.
