It's stopped downloading at 17%....I've tried starting the download again, but nothing is happening 😩

You could try using a standalone downloader program.
Windows just fails the download and you have to start over.
A downloader would restart from the fail point so less faffing.
Take a look at JDownloader.

Cheers Stoney...I've just re-booted the laptop and have managed to get it downloading again. If it stops again then I will give that a try 👍

Good luck with the install.
Make sure you unplug all other usb devices and you should do ok.

It says to download the files again and retry to install 😭😭😭

So what does that mean ???

I've just had to go out in the car and the maps have updated to F8 (the industrial estate that I couldn't find on the old maps is now on there) and the satnav tracking seems to work fine !!

Basically some lines of code conflict with other lines.
It's the computer equivalent of making 1+1 equal 3.
Most likely to do with the check file that gets added to the usb drive for uploading back to Ford.
Tbh if it seems to be working ok then don't worry.

I’ve given up completely, tried everything that’s been suggested. The sync system isn’t even picking up the flash drive now[emoji22]

All the tar.gz files should be in their original syncmyride folder.
You've extracted the files down one folder too far.

You should be able to move them into the SyncMyRide folder no problem

Indeed, just create an empty folder with the correct name and drag / drop all the tar.gz files into it.

Thanks, it seems to have separated when I moved it to the root of the drive. Will try and fix it later, there must be an easier way Ford could come up with[emoji2369]

I have to do that all the time. Ford don't use the correct 'relative path' format when they zip up the files, so whilst unzipping works in Windows, if you try it with Linux or a Mac then the unzip creates files with the full path names including SyncMyRide\. So, since I use Linux almost exclusively, I have to rename and move the files manually. The update works fine having done that though.
