    Loly is right Giomen. I'd hadn't tried to open ver files with anything other than Notepad++ or a hex editor, but when Loly posted about WordPad i tried it and it works. Using his EU file, I get 006-D1275-02 Ò in WordPad. Also, Microsoft Word with encoding set to Unicode shows only 〰ⴶㅄ㜲ⴵ㈰툀 but as Unicode UTF 7 or 8 shows 006-D1275-02, and ASCII shows a trailing R instead of Ò.

    Even swriter.exe [OpenOffice] will open it but shows 006-D1275-02#Ò. It seems there may be any number of basic text readers which will at least show the first part in readable form.

    You are so right about NotePad, it shows: 〰ⴶㅄ㜲ⴵ㈰툀
    And when it comes to WordPad: 006-D1275-02

    〰ⴶㅄ㜲ⴵ㈰툀 just seemed so strange to me, that i got suspicious

    I have tried to find the bad file/files, with no luck.
    Think that the only way, is to copy back each file from the backup
    one by one, and when/if I find it, im back where I startet......
    So that is cancelled, for now.
    Device still running excellent.

    We know the main Garmin hanger (extensions of files) ! It is wrong POI (gpi), voice (vpm), maps (img) and no doubt SW (gcd)...
    Garmin, how much is 30 pieces of silver for Judas today? Were they worthy for crucifix of GPSPower?
