Garmin Express 5.0.0.0 PC Released

 

I just noticed today that Garmin Express 5.0.0.0 for PC/Windows released. Pulling it down and installing now. smile

Express 5.0.0.0 Release Notes.

Here are the release notes from the Garmin Site:

Quote:

Garmin began rolling out Garmin Express v5.0.0 for the PC today. If you would like to upgrade to the latest version, Check for Updates to Express on the Settings page within the Express application. This version includes the following changes:

• Minor improvements and bug fixes.

Unfortunately, this update did not fix the unwanted Chinese voice update problem discussed in this thread: http://www.poi-factory.com/node/46801. The updates are still showing up in v5.0.0.0 mad

I should probably try phranc's method again to see if the 5.0 PC version will fix the problem as the 4.5 verson on the Mac did for him.

I have never known increasing a full version to just be minor improvements and bug fixes. That is usually an incremental increase.

I'll have to see if mine updated

For some reason GE updates itself without my permission. I can't figure out why. It's not set to download any updates or run in the background.

I wondered the same. A pretty meager update for a full integer version update.

maybe....

There's a security bug that's been closed up that we're not being told about...

Who knows...

I'm sure we've all seen nonsense like this in the past and we're likely to see it again in the future..
