Does anyone know of a POI console/loader converter for Destinator 6?

Hello
Would anyone know if there is a Console/Converter that would work with Destinator 6 that I could download and install on my PC?
I have an Invion 7v106 gps with US and Canada maps. I need the Destinator 6 console to convert POIs. Does anyone have this tool or know how to make the file I have work. My email is gbresser@comcast.net

WinZip file problem

I downloaded a software update from Magellan and saved it. I hooked up my explorist600. My PC recognizes it. When I click on RUN, I get this message.
