Do you Exit from TomTom before switching off the PDA?

If so, then check the .CFG File in the Map Folder that it is not Read Only.

If it is then just change the File Properties.

Moved to a more appropriate place.

Always exit Tomtom before turning of the pda.

Just checked the file and the cfg.Right clicked on it and its showing as archive with a tick next to it.

Untick the read only attribute and copy the file back to the PDA - this will allow settings to be stored by the software - Mike

Right in the map Great Britain got a mac,pna,cf3 and cfg folder.Been into the cfg and unticked the read only.Put memory card back into the pda as im using a card reader but still getting the same problem.

Everytime i go back into the cfg folder its ticked as archive.

.cfg is a file not a folder.

The archive bit is not relevant.
Did you mean the read-only boxed is ticked?
