Problems with 2018.10 download on my 2558

 

Others have reported as well so problem is not unique. When downloading update I get the red icon "There was a problem installing the update." Approx. 1/2 way complete then I get the message. Tried unplugging and restarting with same results?
Any ideas?
Thanks

Used laptop w/ windows 10

and upload completed with no problems. Having problems with PC using Win 7. All other updates prior to this went fine with PC.

I think GE 5.1.1 recent update had a bug for some people installing it

Same Problem

Had the same install problem. Found out that the installation went fine for the gps but somehow did not install to computer. Re-connected to computer and selected computer only and installed fine. Just FYI.
