Hi all,
newbie here. Seached the forum for a patch-file for my GPSMAP 65s, but did not find any link that works......
Anyone willing to provide a new upload ? Much appreciated.

Great, mate! Really appreciate.
Let`s see that I manage to patch my device....I´ll read through the pages and try what I can do as dummy....long time registered, but never new about patching the device as I recently changed to 65s from my old 62s...

Copied the GCD file to SD-card under "/Garmin" and device was updated(down-versioned) to 4.50 and now reads downloaded maps....I guess I did it right ?
Thanks again for the support.
May I ask also to update the link for the patcher ? Just in case for future device change....

Good day, clearly I'm a little late to the party, just bought a 64S to replace my old 60CSX, I have the "cannot unlock maps issue". Is there an active link to this firmware update. I have searched this thread all links are inactive. TIA

Used one of the links on here to go to Garmins official downloader for 64S and although it states Version 6.06 there is no download link.
The only official link I can find is for version 2.58.
Is there a link for the 64s downloader?. TIA
