Open the zip folder that you removed. If there are 6 files in the folder, remove all but the 2 for Great Britain & copy the folder back into your unit. If, instead of files, you see another folder, with the files in it, cut this second folder from the first & copy it back into your unit.

hi mate,

Thank you for your help. I did exactly what you told me, which is to delete all files, except the two Great Britain files inside the zip folder and then transferred the folder to the root of tomtom.

Unfortunately, it's still the same and many of the major roads are showing as unnamed. I'm 99% sure it's the new postcode file. Would it be worth trying to put an older postcode file to see if that can find it? If so, where can I get it from?

Every TT map thread has the Postcodes download for that Edition map in post 1 and also in post 2 of the Map Collections Only thread for that Edition map.

It's the same 910 zip.zip file in both threads (All New Maps 910.XXXX and 910 Map Collections only!) mate.

Both are for the same edition maps, so certainly the 910 zip.zip file is the same in both.
