It is also worth installing the radars on the maps you use, which will help you, above all, so that the police do not punish you, something that always comes in handy and even more so now, that there is a major crisis in which nobody It is good to spend more than necessary.Įither way, 'Caution, driver friend, the road is dangerous.Give the next procedure a try. If you have a TomTom desktop navigator, you no longer have an excuse so that it always tells you how it should be, something that is always important and much more if we are on the road. Anyway, although I have seen radars of Spain on maps of Europe, the most convenient is use points of interest only on maps for which they were created. The radars of Spain will not work on an Asian map and, once we leave the country where we have installed the radars, we will stop receiving notifications. It is important to mention that, logically, if we download points of interest or radars from Spain, we will have to copy them into the folder «Iberia» or a map that contains Spain, such as that of Europe.

We just have to drag the files we have downloaded, which usually have names like 'radars_fijos.ov2' (and the rest with different extensions), to the desired map folder. Knowing how TomTom maps are installed, install radars so that they warn us and not take the photo is child's play.

We can also install POIs (Points of Interest) on our TomTom desktop.

We click on the number of the menu we need.

If we have a card, better on the SD card.

We copy the file FastActivate.exe to the root of the internal memory of the GPS.

We access our Tomtom's removable drive on our PC.

We connect our TomTom GPS to our Windows PC.

To activate the maps we will do the following: You can download 'fantactivate' from ForoKeys is as a fixed post. There are other ways, but I think this is the simplest and fastest.

We copy the data from the unzipped file into the new folder and we would already have them installed, but we still have to activate them.

If we have downloaded 'eastern_europe.zip', our folder should be called 'eastern_europe' (without quotes in both cases). Very important that it has the same name or it will not work.

We rename the folder with the same name as the file we had downloaded.

In 'My PC' we will see our TomTom as a removable drive.

We located the file that we had downloaded and unzipped it (if it was compressed).

We connect the USB cable to the GPS and to the computer (Windows, if it can be).Install a map on a Tomtom GPS Desktop is not complicated at all (the complicated comes later).
