Does anyone know which files I have to delete to completely remove the old TomTom speed camera database off my 720 so I can just have the PGPSW ones?

See No 13 in the TomTom FAQs, which can be found at the top of the TomTom Portable Navigation Devices forum.

Sorry to be thick (which I know I can be!) but the latest TomTom HOME (v 2.7.3.1984 does not have an icon for "remove items from my Go" [If there is then I can't see it] (The FOI refers to version 2.3)
How do you manage this on this latest version of HOME?
Isn't there a way to delete the cameras file from the device simply by deleting a file - if there is can someone please let me know the name of the file(s) concerned? (probably the most version proof method if it works!)

It's in Home's Page 2 - 'Manage my Device' - 'Items on Device' tab - select the items to be removed using the tickboxes then the 'Remove items from device' button is at the bottom.
That should get you sorted.

Strangely enough, I produced a list in another topic only a couple of days ago.....
The files are all in the relevant map folder and for my 940 (using the LIVE services camera subscription) the UK ones are:
Safety_Cam_UK_Premium.ov2
Safety_Cam_UK_Premium.ov2.dct
Safety_Cam_UK_PremiumOv2.ver
I guess the ones on a 720 will have pretty similar names, maybe without the "premium".
Also, there may well be lots of European ones with names like:
Autovelox_IT_TomTom
Blitzer_AT_TomTom.ov2 (and CZ, DE etc.)
Fartkamera_SE_TomTom.ov2 - (yeah, I know!  )
Fartsboks_NO_TomTom.ov2
Flitspaal_NL_TomTom.ov2
Kamerat_FI_TomTom.ov2
Radar_BE_TomTom.ov2
Finally, you might also have the European premium camera files: Safety_Cam_DE_Premium.ov2.dct (and FR, NL etc.) |

Managed to find it - it comes under the Points of Interest tab under the Items on device - then you select the ones you want to get rid of!
