Why won't updates download?

I connect my VIA 225 to my computer (Windows). The device starts and MyDrive Connect opens. It advises that there are updates available, I select 'Update All' or manually select the updates (either) and ask it to update. It says it is downloading the updates, but it never does, even though the little green dots flash as though it was?

Hi
@Charles50
Welcome to the site....
Firstly Try....
Disconnect your Tomtom device....
(Do not Reconnect your device until instructed)
Logout of MyDrive Connect....
From the Power menu 'Restart' your PC (NOT Turn it Off 'n' On again)....
Run MyDrive Connect & Login... Connect & Start your device....
__________________________
If you are still having problems with MyDrive Connect... I find deleting the "HOME3" and the "MyDrive Connect" folders in the MyDrive Connect Program will usually bring MyDrive Connect back to life...

The recommended fix was just the 'ants pants'. Worked a treat. I'm nearly seventy and I got through it without too much trouble. (Thought about it for a few days and then marched in!!)
Back to normal now. Can't thank you enough. I remain,
yours sincerely,
