No problems with v7.17.0 here. My XT connected fine. No anomalies noted as I reviewed the different functions. I haven't tried installing a map to a PC but have confirmed that the option is there.

I did not use the built-in updater. I downloaded then installed it manually.

It appears that v7.17.0.0 has been pulled by Garmin. On 2023/05/24 at 7:23 PM EST I downloaded v7.17.0.0 from the Garmin Express download website. Just now, 2023/05/26 at 7:06 PM EST I did the download again and received v7.16.3.0.

I just love the way that certain words and phrases continue to evolve to mean something completely different from what they used to mean.

Decimate, 110%, Pigs Ear, State of the Art, Via, Trip, Shorter, Faster, Testing, ........

Today, I discovered something really important. I found another way that doesn't work.

Just checked and v7.17.0.0 is the latest update for Windows.

@Les, where did you see this. I just now download GE and the properties of the downloaded GarminExpress.exe file shows it is 7.16.3.0. Source https://www.garmin.com/en-US/software/express/windows/

You must have upgraded before Garmin reverted back to 7.16.3. I did, and see the same as you but folks who didn't are seeing 7.16.3 as "up to date". Apparently GE doesn't look for a version mismatch, just whether the installed one is older than the one they have on their server. I suspect that we should do a manual download/reinstall once Garmin re-releases 7.17.0.0. Hopefully they'll release it as a different version.
