Garmin Express Leaves A large Number Of Files

#5224

Post by Phillip Coetser »

Hi all..seeing that we have'nt got a lot to do with the lockdown,...and for those that need space on their pc's hard drive, this might help ..After installing 2021.10 with Garmin Express, I noticed my hard drive was getting quite full.
I uninstalled 2020.10/20/30 map sets and noticed only 3g of gained space. Further search found that C:ProgramData / Garmin Core Service / Downloads / Map, directory, had folders for 2020.10 / 2020.20 / and 2020.30
it seems GE leaves a large number of files in C:Program Data / Garmin Core Service / Downloads...in my case 4g more
I haven't had any functional issues with deleting all files. Hopes this might help someone.
