Problem with disconnect the eTrex 22x from the Windows 10 USB port. (Both STD port or High speed port)
When I am finished add or removing any GPX files or just look at the files with the browser I always disconnect the Garmin form the USB port.
I click on the USB icon on the lower right-hand corner. If I pick the main unit first all goes OK.
You get the message you can remove the eTrex 22x. Now I always click to remove the SD card to from the USB port too.
Nothing happen I can click all I want and the USB window does not open.
If I try to shut the Laptop down it will not shutdown. You have to remove the USB cable from the Laptop and the eTrex 22x will shut down.
Plus the Laptop runs normal again. Have even tried disconnect the SD card first and then the eTrex 22x next again the same problems.
As I have many different Garmin GPS units none of these display this problem. My latest Garmin GPSMAP 66s always disconnects with no problems.
It does not matter which item I disconnect first. I pick the second Item the 66s after the first and it shuts down and I remove the USB cable.
I have tried many Garmin cables thinking maybe it is the cable but it does it with all the cables.
The eTrex 22x is up-to-date with everything. The unit works with no problems in the field.
Even tried different SD cards thinking maybe the problem is there. (It does not help at all)
Software version 2.50
Even replaced the Garmin USB drivers to see if that was the problem. (did not help)
I have sent this info to Garmin today.
This problem has been there since the first day I plugged the unit into the Laptop.
The eTrex 22x is a week old.
