Good day;
I get the following error when I start Basecamp (latest version):

"There was a problem communicating with the Zumo XT
An error occured while reading the following file(s):
gpx/current.gpx"

Anybody know what I did wrong and/or how to correct this error?

Thanks for any and all help;
Gord

Did I answer this elsewhere? Anyway the solution is just delete the file

Any hint as to where the file is that needs to be deleted? I don't see a gpx folder or current.gpx file. Using Windows 10.

It's in the GPX folder on your Zumo

I have the same problem and the solution with delete the GPX file in Zumo doesn't help :(

I've always had better luck with the 595 by having the computer do one thing at a time. I open BaseCamp and wait. It's a slow process. After a few minutes I plug my device in and wait again. It's an even slower process this time. Sometimes it can take upwards of 6 to 8 minutes for everything to work correctly.

Thank you, but still the same. Crash after the Zumo is connected. :(
