OV2 Files ?

Since the November speed camera updates I can not get Ov2 files, so I have not been able to update, the files I get seem to be DAT files not zip files, help please.

It just worked for me as normal...
Selected "TomTom ov2" in first box, selected "UK speed-zoned complete" in second box. Downloaded file was "pgpsw-speed-cams.zip" as normal.

Try a different browser? Turn off Firewall temporarily?
What is the name of the file you DO get?

Thank you Andy for your reply,I will try again after turning off my firewall. The file name is downloadcameras, this has never happened before and I have done many downloads.

Andy, turning off firewall makes no difference. Sad

Try re-naming the file extension of the downloaded folder (use Windows Explorer locate the download and right click it, select re-name from the pop-up box), it needs to be .zip once correctly named can you open it to reveal the actual contents? - Mike

Thanks Mike, it,s so easy when you know how,just adding .zip did the trick. Thanks again.

Strange behaviour you are experiancing, I can understand the file extension being missing (it happens from time to time) but the actual file name you mention is wrong, unless you re-named it when downloading. At least you now know how to get the information you need - Mike
