Global Locate for XXL540

Greetings,

I have been having issues with my XXL540 device.

Yes, I know it's old, but I have updated to the latest TomTom Australia Map.

The problem is when I try to update the QuickFixGPS diectly, I get the following message

Get update for the Global Locate and SiRFStar-III chipset.
(repeat every 5-7 days for actual data and to fix the WNRO bug)

Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.26100.4946]

Start direct download from the Tomtom site . . . .
The system cannot find the file specified.
Could Not Find D:\ephem\*.cab
Extracting QuickGPSFix files to D:\ephem
Error: QuickGPSFix files are not accessible on the Tomtom site!

Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.26100.4946]
'wget.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
GPSFix files not accessible on the Tomtom site.

When I use the TTActvator and the FastActivate program, I always get the message unknown chipset.

Sure, QuickFixGPS can get updated using those tools but when I try using the GPS device for navigation purposes, The map more or less freezers and still waiting for valid gps signal for at least 2 hours, then I say, stuff this and switch it off.

Lucky for me I knew the directions to take as I've been to that location before.
I was road testing the map.

Anyone know what the cause could be and how to resolve this.

Thanks
