Re: Basecamp Update
Its your choice David
I am a firm believer in updating to the latest all the time
Well once others have tested it first and not reported any issues

Re: Basecamp Update
I don't do PC technology and am too anxious about making changes, wouldn't want to risk losing 100's of BaseCamp routes.

Re: Basecamp Update
Just downloaded and installed it with no issues here!
You can back things up or export them to a safe place
Open basecamp select routes so its showing all routes
Click File and export
You can then keep them somewhere safe on a usb drive or something just in case anything ever did happen

Re: Basecamp Update
I've also had problems with the required .NET framework 4.6 when trying to install Garmin Express updates. MY PC man contacted Garmin on my behalf and if I remember correctly, I'd need a new version of Windows installing on my PC to resolve the issue.
I have to uninstall, then reinstall Garmin Express when updates are available.
