Lovely Fetchies please help. My ageing Garmin now refuses to be recognised by my PC. The PC wants to format the Garmin. I've tried it on two PCs and I've found that the PC thinks the Garmin is healthy and partitioned correctly. The error in Device Manager is: Disk&Ven_Garmin&Prod_FR620_Flash&Rev_1.006&17e98aae&0 was not migrated due to partial or ambiguous match. Can anyone help? I need to upload my run.... thanks in advance. |

You could try deleting the device in device manager, then replugging the device so it installs the drivers again... Looks like a joyful Windows 10 'feature'....

Do you mean uninstalling it? I have just tried that but no joy. The error message say 'The volume does not contain a recognised file system' The battery is iffy so I don't use bluetooth. I might have to for this run and then work out what's going on. |

Can you right click on it in device manager, and delete or remove? Sorry not sat in front of a pc atm to see the wording

LindsD You may want to delete the history on the phone, then try again .. and/or look at answers.microsoft.com and drivereasy.com Recent Windows upgrade? |

Not since two days ago when I last uploaded. Why would it be the same on two different PCs if it was a driver problem? Sorry if that's a stupid question.
