Dropping support for macOS versions 11.7 and older.

Please note: Garmin Express can still be downloaded and used on these older OSes. Any issues that are exclusive to these OSes will not be resolved in a future update, however.

No problems on installation.

Be nice if Garmin gave us a new map instead of the zillion new versions of Garmin Express.

Yes, the "Launch Garmin Express when your computer starts up" is again checked upon installation, so an uncheck is required for those of us who hate running unnecessary background tasks.

Maybe I missed it earlier, but I also see a 3rd check box option in the General Settings: "Automatically open Garmin Express when a Garmin device is connected." Is this new?

At least only one of the three boxes is checked upon installation.

Just noticed this with the new map update. Updated GE on my Windows 11 laptop with no issues.

the Garmin Express updater service is still scheduled to run at 2:00 AM (at least on my installation). And indeed it does run as indicated by the content below which is the ExpressSelfUpdater.log file found at C:\ProgramData\Garmin\Logs\SelfUpdater\ExpressSelfUpdater.log.

Download complete. Thank you

No that's been there for some time though it is greyed out in my GE !

If you want GE to start when you plug a device in, it has to be running in the background. If that is not checked, it is grayed out. Seems like the only way to do that is to have it start when Windows starts. Therefore, all three need to be checked.

Downloaded and updated.

Thanks for the info

Thanks for the heads up !
