    Hi
    @Markku_M1
    Welcome to the site....
    On the rare occasions I have a problem with myDrive Connect
    I Delete MyDrive Connect using the free version of Revo Uninstaller then Reinstall MyDrive Connect....
    Using the Method Here... https://discussions.tomtom.com/en/discussion/comment/1682074/#Comment_1682074
    ______________________

    Or... Instead of UN-installing & RE-installing MyDrive Connect
    I find deleting the "HOME3" and the "MyDrive Connect" folders in the MyDrive Connect Program... To be just as effective for giving MyDrive Connect a CPR...

    Thanks @YamFazMan
    I'm on a Mac but have found the two folders you mentioned (Home3 and MyDriveConnect) and deleted them. Hurrah.. that's done the trick after a couple of frustrating weeks I've updated it successfully.
    Many thanks for the advice.

    On a Mac....
    The "HOME3" and the "MyDrive Connect" folders are located here...

    I have to say that I am very unhappy to TomTom technical support. i have now around 3 weeks, several times tried to update my TomTom 400 motorcycle navigator and only result I have succeed is I lost maps. Support from chat site is minor and I do not even know where I can send or bring navigator for service. maybe this is TomTom marketing policy to get people update their navigator every second year.

    Hi
    @Markku_M1
    I'm Running Win10 as well... All OK no problems....

    Try.... With MyDrive Connect running... Your device plugged in and turned on
    On the PC keyboard... Press the Windows Button + X key
    Choose Device Manager
    The Device Manager Window opens
    Double Click on the '>' character to the left of Network adapters
    The Network adapters Menu opens

    If the Tomtom#'n' Icon or the Remote NDIS Compatible Device Icon (See Note 1) has a Yellow Exclamation displayed then there is a problem with the installed Driver....
    Note 1... The Driver maybe listed as a Remote NDIS Compatible Device....
    My GO Premium displays as 'NDIS Compatible Device #8'
    ____________________

    Maybe Win 10s Troubleshooter will fix the Driver Problems (Or any other USB problems)

    With MyDrive Connect running... Your device plugged in and turned on
    On the PC keyboard... Press the Windows Button + R key
    In the Run box type... Control printers
    Click OK
    The Devices and Printers window opens
    Right Click on the Tomtom Icon and select 'Troubleshoot'
    Note... Maybe listed as a Remote NDIS Compatible Device....
    My GO Premium displays as 'NDIS Compatible Device #8'

    Then follow on-screen instructions....

    Thanks YFM,

    I did all you mentioned and I receive following trouble shooting message
    "Remote NDIS Compatible device can`t work with USB 3.0"

    What to do next?

    Hi
    @Markku_M1

    See if there are any updated drivers for your USB 3.0 Ports
    Also don't use an USB Hub, connect direct to the computer

    USB 3.0 is supposed to be backward compatible to USB 2,0 but some makes of USB 3.0 ports are more backward compatible than others
