    It's when it's checking for updates it just doesn't find them and keeps saying loading.

    Hi @cornishchrchris

    Do not know anything about the Renault setup but might be an idea to look at the following which is the InCar section of the forum

    https://discussions.tomtom.com/en/categories/built-in-car-navigation

    Type Renault in search and see what comes up.

    It maybe that when @VikramK looks here tomorrow he may be able to gives you some advice.

    I also have the same problem. Its a question of TomTom Home's (the latest version) inability to show the search results. The map works perfectly in-car.

    Hi
    @joakes

    I have no experience using the Tomtom built in car systems....
    But this may help with Tomtom Home 2 installation....

    Here are two Options you may want to try...

    OK here was the solution.

    I uninstalled everything, then re-installed the TomTom version that was on the card (v2.8, a 32bit version).

    I then did the 2.99.999 etc hack of the application.cfg file and lo and behold .... it works.

    Its a real shame that the 64bit version does not.C'mon TomTom get working on a fix for this.

    Best,
    Jerry
