setup utility 18.1.0
The same what Siggi explains happens here. Additionally when I try to install the WINCE application with Setup Utility 18.1.0 on a SD card it finishes immediately with message "Operation finished", but does nothing Uli

Resizing window...Solved!
Like tomas said, create a shortcut on your desktop and modify the contents of the target line as described in the manual, fitting your needs. Different example: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Navigator17\PC_Navigator\PC_Navigator.exe" --window_b…

You can start it with a certain size but not resize flexible. See the manual under "Command line arguments" Uli

How to get tmc info for navigator 17 on windows 1p
Now 6 months have passed: Are there any news about the no more existing/parsable TMC location tables? Are any investigation done at all or is that a dead project for Mapfactor? MNF's TMC in Windows and WINCE navigation units is otherwise usele…

Navigator 17 Free doesn't exactly close when user closes program
I get the following when closing: https://www.pic-upload.de/view-35044076/Ad.jpg.html But I remember times when I had the same behaviour as you do: just got stuck at the last map or whatever. Maybe depending on version.

That's a known feature since longtime and it is wanted in this way by Mapfactor. That's called "Advertising". You cannot stop it, at least as far as I know. Uli

How to get tmc info for navigator 17 on windows 1p
Can anybody from the OSM community please check Tomas' statement. Searching the web for OSM and TMC I found no hint that TMC was discontinued. And TMC is still described in the OSM wiki. Not that I understood it completely but there are 2 TMC…

Any chance to get an answer for my previous question? As it is right now TMC is useless in the WINCE version. Uli

Datentransfer
Kopiere die Datei routing_points.xml auf das andere Gerät. Woher und wohin ist abhängig vom Betriebssystem (WINDOWS, WINCE, Android div. Versionen) und von der verwendeten Navigatorversion.

TMC delivers no location. WINCE version 17.1.6, newest Germany maps from December received radio station SWR1 Stuttgart Germany All TMC messages I get and I receive a lot contain the first line [D01-xxxxx] where xxxxx is a 5 digit number The foll…

Navigating Map view
I suggest you play with the 2nd icon from right on the bottom line, next to the loudspeaker symbol. It could be that you are in "route overview mode" where arrow centering is disabled. It also helps a little bit to read the manual: http:/…

PC Navigator 17 Screen Size
Please read the manual. In the english Rev 16 manual chapter 8, page 103: command line arguments In the German one chapter 19, page 121: Parameter für die Navigator Befehlszeile As far as I know there isn't a Rev 17 manual yet. Uli

"Trailing" arrows behind icon during nav
For my person I disagree. I find them helpful especially in cities where there are crossings or circles with lots of streets coming in/going out.

MapFactor within Cyanogenmod
You may be right, as I was using ES Explorer where it worked and showed my 2 navigation apps. Using the builtin cm11 file manager I get only the choice of editor and oruxmaps, Navigator is also missing here.

MapFactor within Cyanogenmod
Cyanogenmod is/was more or less pure Android. So you can assign file associations like in any other Android version, e.g. also in the Cyanogenmod successor LineageOs. I just checked in my old CM 11 = Android Kitkat 4.4 and in my LineageOs 14.1 = And…

Selective map update
You can also just unselect the unwanted maps in map manager. Of course you'd also have to do it everytime you want to update. Uli

No possibility to set destination when small town has no street names nor numbers
Click on the map on your destination point and then set it as destination. Otherwise maybe get a newer version and/or maps, because in my navigator Android 3.0.103 I find only Jablonki powiat leski and powiat laski. Both allow a search for town hou…

How do I get traffic to work on WIN CE head unit?
How effective depends into which situations you get. Data is coming in and can be looked at and also is shown on the map. But so far I experienced only once that Navigator really had to reroute, but it did a good job and saved me long hours standing…

How do I get traffic to work on WIN CE head unit?
Like Tomas said, you need a WINCE device with built in TMC receiver and find out on which port and baudrate it is working. Then you have to configure it in Navigator's settings. On my Medion P4445 it is for example "TMC Port COM1 38400 Ba…

How to install Navigator Free on Medion E4445?
I have a P4445, with similar or equal hardware and run Navigator on it since version 11. I'll try to remember what I have done. I think with your "cleanup all" you kicked yourself in the knee. Don't know how to start from a clea…

Usage of free TMC for Mapfactor Navigator
Maybe have a look at an older thread about this problem. http://forum.mapfactor.com/discussion/6671 For me it was a temporary problem which solved itself after a while. Probably wrong data from that station.

Navigator Free problem - SSL support not isntalled. Install OpenSSL.
Are you maybe trying to download TomTom (commercial) maps? Before downloading switch to tab Free maps. Uli

In Navigator Free you don't have to enter a product key. You have to select the public key during installation. Setup then installs 2 icons on your desktop: Navigator and Navigator Free You have to start Navigator Free, not Navigator.

I suppose you mean Naviagtor free in Windows or WINCE? Not Android? You have to configure and activate GPS. In MENU->Settings->GPS and MENU->GPS. Your corrent position is then shown on the map. You don't have to be in navigating/routi…
