Hi Paul,
If you open Garmin Express and click the cog (settings) options you have a tick box you can unselect to stop Garmin Express updating automatically
Hope that helps

I would have sworn there was a setting specifically for stopping Express updating, but it's not there in 5.7 for sure.

There's only the option to alter device updates in 5,7
Strangely enough I was on version 3.29 prior to Paul's question this evening and it only updated to 5.7 when I selected the Garmin Express update option

Thanks for the rapid replies gentlemen.
Both of those tick-boxes that Badger suggested - I have tried them, without success, in the last few days. At least, I'm 99.9% sure, although I'll go and do it again now just in case I'm losing my marbles.
There isn't a box specifically for stopping updates (at least, not in 5.4 or 5.5, and also 5.7 as you say). Perhaps there was a way back (like cg's 3.29?). If I can find one of them, and stop updates that way.... (not sure whether that old a version will result in other issues, but at the moment I don't have GE at all, so it can't be worse :-)).

So you probably need an older version - on the bright side, the 310xt hasn't changed firmware in ages, so there's a good chance older versions will work OK for that side, and it sounds as though cg was getting on OK with 3.29.
I have found a couple of old installers in my download folder and am happy to share if it helps

I've moved on from the 310 although I still have it. I was having trouble with the garmin express when trying to get a garmin 15 sorted. Maybe I'll try some of the solutions from above.

While we're on the subject, if anyone has a broken 310XT I'd love to take it off your hands. The strap has broken on mine, while the device itself is OK!

Northern Exile I'm almost sure I have an extra strap about. I'll get a check for it Wednesday afternoon /evening.
