Hi
@aajohnf1

If you have used the Tomtom MyDrive Web Route Planner & Tomtom Cloud
Here... https://mydrive.tomtom.com
You My Places should be synced to your Account on the Tomtom Cloud
_______________________________

Many users have asked for the facility to backup their MyPlaces to a PC
The MyDrive Route planner allows you to download your data from the Tomtom Cloud

The file looks like unusable Gobbledegook, the MyPlaces can be found in the file
