Check to see if the drive where Garmin is, is called SDMMC, Edit the paths in the .mscr script if not

yes the drive is called SDMMC

If the device recognises the SD as drive SDMMC and the settings are not saved than it is most likely that you don't have the Garmin version for SDMMC or that your SD is labeled something else.

Thanks gyus i will try a diferent version it took me 4 days to make the script working with the portsplitter here we go again :)

A thought occurs, Are you exiting Garmin and returning to the shell/desktop or are you turning off the device? Because to backup the settings you must exit Garmin for the script to continue.

yes iam exiting garmin pressing exit button and i have tried many versions of garmin only this one works right but .....

How this works is...

Garmin insists on saving it's settings in the root of the device, ie, \Garmin, This is lost after a reboot.

Start script, (RunGMXT.exe)
The script will copy the saved settings from a backup on a SD card to \Garmin
Now Garmin is started...
...Garmin is closed
The script copies \Garmin back to the SD card

If the settings are not being saved then either the backup is not copied from the card before Garmin starts, or not copied to the card afterwards.

XCopy("\SDMMC\Garmin\Settings\*.*","\Garmin" ,True,True) <- Before Garmin starts
XCopy("\Garmin\*.*","\SDMMC\Garmin\Settings" ,True,True) <- After Garmin closes

Check whether the highlighted folder exists...

Hi Dowunder35m,
I asked
"How to load a route that I´ve saved in Mapsource, because if I put to transfer to the gps (to the SD), I cann´t find it".
Thank´s
Kleobis

Please ask one of the Garmin specialists about that as I never used this function.

It is NOT possible to send a saved route from Mapsource to Garmin XT, Nor waypoints or tracks. :(

Well you must have a different Garmin XT to mine.
I frequently send tracks, routes and waypoints to my GPS with Garmin MapSource.
Garmin Mapsource 6.16.3 and Mobile XT 5.00.20wp.

They are ALL found and displayed on my maps with Tools > Manage My Data > (My Locations) (Routes) (Tracks).

Yes your quite correct!!!!!, I have XT 5.00.30wp. ASN which is the only version I could get to perform on my WinCE 6 800x480 2din (without display split screen) - definitely can't transfer with Mapsource .

So it looks to be VERY dependent on what version AND what hardware?!

Have you tried using a card reader for your SD flash card? Garmin MapSource also allows me to send data that way.

Thanks for the thought Scubadoo, but I tried almost every method possible , MS will send a gpx file to the sd card (and puts it in a folder storage card/garmin/gpx , but XT just does not see it for some reason. XT
