Interesting behaviour with a route from 46.393005 / 6.804990 to 46.393532 / 6.803965 (lat / long). It’s in Saint-Gingolph, first one on swiss side, second one on french side of the city, about 100 m away from each other. Navigator plans a route which is almost 174 KM long (car with motorway and toll-road).
Same route on http://map.project-osrm.org looks better (320 m) while Google Maps goes directly (99 m). I don’t know which one is actually correct but I don’t think the Navigator-route is.
P.S.: Same from 46.249342 / 6.846952 to 46.25038678 / 6.845621161. Seems like Navigator doesn't like the border between Switzerland and France.
Tomas, you are right, the map of France was from August, Switzerland from December. The setup-utility never offered me an update of the map of France, but searching the forum I found out that there is a new version, consisting of 4 parts. I suppose this is what causes the weird behaviour.
It took me a while to find out how to get these parts downloaded. After copying them to my android-device the former incorrect routing worked fine there. Now I'm trying for hours to find out how to get the french maps to work in the PC-version of Navigator, without success until now. Even after a complete cleaning of the PC, activating the early map access, downloading and reinstalling the setup-utility and the application I find every map I download in PC-Navigator, but not the french one.
At a few places I read about a PC Navigator version 12.3.0, but mine still is 12.1.0, only the setup-utility is 12.3.0. Any hints what I am doing wrong?
JambaFee, yes, you have to install new PC Navigator. The recognition of updates fails sometimes - one way is to delete existing installation (the path is something like c:\ProgramData\Navigator\12.3\Install\setup_pc_navigator.exe and it will force setup utility to download new installation. thanks for report Martin
That was an the important hint - to delete the setup_pc_navigator.exe-file. The trick is: If you change the path for "downloadable content" e.g. to X:\PATH this setup-file is stored in the directory "X:\PATH\Install" and has to be deleted from there. I never did this before and obviously therefore always got the old version installed.
Now finally I also have version 12.3.0 installed. Which leads to the next error (see thread "PC Navigator - Settings - About").
