[SOLVED] Unable to activate Australia v1050 maps

Hi. I've been using TomTom Navigator inside WinCE for ages, using FastActivate and the like over the years to get the current CE capable Australia maps running in it. Everything was fine up to and including the v1040 maps, but v1045 and now v1050 have failed with "Incomplete Map(s)/.dct ERROR".
I've been using the available WinCE compatible map versions and their supposed meta files, but they no longer seem to activate in FastActivate. Did something change between v1040 and v1045 to break FastActivate WinCE activations?

Take the latest FastAktivate
http://www.navitotal.com/viewtopic.php?f=127&t=19452
and read the latest instruction.
Further about wich map you talking about 1050.????

I have the latest FastActivate (29/04/2020).

Doing further testing I tried using the WinCE compatible map (Australia v1050.10184) on my Go 910 as well, and it also got a DCT error. Next I tried Australia v1050.10180 on my Go 910 and it gave the same Incomplete/DCT error.

FastActivate contains the metas for these maps, yet they're still failing.

Australie 1050.10184 is corrupted
Just downloaded 1050.10180 and corrupted to
If the map is corrupted send Popeye a PM

I think there is something weird with FastActivate.
The AUS v1050.10184 would refuse to activate when placed in the root of my WinCE SD card. I then tried placing the map & FastActivate in the 'Navigator' folder of the card and it would also refuse to activate.
Eventually for some reason I had multiple copies of v1050 and a previously activated copy of v1045 all in the Navigator folder. Suddenly FastActivate activated ALL the map folders.

Not sure if all that was necessary but thats what finally worked for me.
