Thought I'd put this in one place for people who are having the "missing databases" problem with the latest update to the GTN750

1 - Uninstall the installed version of the trainer which will be 2.5

2 - Download this ... http://download.garmin.com/software/GarminTrainerSetup_2400.zip - it contains the 2.4 version of the trainers AND the databases.

3 - Extract all the files and run the setup program

That's it - the GTN should now work correctly

Thank a lot! This worked for me. When using this link https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/556499-gtn-trainer-6501-download-links-02jul19-update/ I was forced to the update for the installer 2,5), no other options given. The result was the same as the flawed new update that gave me no databases.😀

Had the no database problem After the latest upgrade for X-plane. Figured it was me. After I followed the manual and created these two environment variables, 

GTNSIMPATH="C:\Program Files (x86)\Garmin\GTN Trainer\GTN\sys\sim (6210)\"!

 

GTNSIMDATA="C:\ProgramData\Garmin\GTN Trainer Data (6210)"!

Which not only didn’t work with the update, also didn’t work with your delete, reinstall.

what are the PROPER GTN environment variable arguments for:

GTNSIMDATA,GTNSIMPATH?

Thanks,and have a wonderful day!

@hesynergy Hi, what would you like to do, or what issue you'd like to solve, in setting up these environment variables?

I want my RXP GTN750 update to work.   It would also be nice, for future reference, to know to WHAT file we are pointing.

Thanks,

Chas

Which update? please review this first:

 

There has been a v2.5.19 update shortly followed with a v2.5.19.1 update (because Garmin has released 2 updates a few weeks apart too).

I updated to this 2.5.19.1 and now my screens are all black and none working. Prior to this update my GTN's were working fine without issue. I reinstalled everything and still no resolve. How can I rollback to 2.5.19 that was stable without issue?

@Wavecourage Hi, can you please post the content of the RXP log files? (see user's manual for file/path)

Hi, It looks like for some reason after I completed the update, my firewall is now blocking the connection to RealtyXP 32.dll or something. 

 

So I see McAfee is quarantining the RXPGTNSim32.dll file when loading? Any ideas as to why?

@Wavecourage the main reason is most likely the same as this:

 

Just exclude any of the RXP files from scan (they all start with rxp in lower case) and this should run ok.
