Anyone come across this and know how to fix it? I've been through various online forums and not found anything helpful.
My watch used to have run, run indoor, bike, bike indoor, and other as options. It's also got the "Apps" option. I hid the indoor options as I never use them, and then when I went to use the bike option it had disappeared. From what I can gather, it seems to be something that happens sometimes when there's a software update (seems to have been an issue for people for a few years, but not happened to me before), but I can't make any of the suggested solutions work.
Anyone got any bright ideas I can try. Or should I just resign myself to recording rides as runs and then manually changing them?

If you go to Settings, Activities & Apps, Add then it should list all the default ones that are not currently showing

Sounds like you have a new activity profile.

Not under the settings/activities menu. It used to be, but disappeared. And today it's randomly missing counting my steps. Walked to and from parkrun, and ran parkrun, and it's only recorded 4300 steps!

Might be worth doing a full factory reset (will loose all settings and apps)?
Settings / System / Restore Defaults

Had this on a FR45. Resolved it by copying the bike profile .fit from another FR45 watch (fortunately both wife and eldest son have the same) and dropping it into the right folder on the affected watch. So I suppose if someone could extract one for you from their watch and email it to you it ought to be worth a try?

Thanks, I'll give the copying the file thing a try (there's at least one other person I know with the right watch!) and if that doesn't work, factory reset.
