Garmin mapsource “Previous MapSource not found!” error

I just wanted to do a fgresh install of Garmin program MapSource and I downloaded the installation files from garmin webpage.

When I try to install “Setup.exe” Iget an error “Previous MapSource not found!“.

So I checked the net for answers and solution to the problem and I found one that works.

MapSource Installation instructions:

1. Download MapSource software updater from Garmin.
2. Extract file MapSource_6156.exe downloaded using 7-zip or WinRAR.
3. From the extracted files, run MSMAIN.msi.
4. After that you can run Setup.exe and installation will be successfull.

Have a nice day and start using the MapSource for Garmin navigation…

    For some reason i didn’t succeed to fix that trouble…
    Will go on searching for the solution.
    Why Garmin? There are lots of software solutions offered by a number of mobile application development companies that are able to turn a smartphone into a full-functional GPS navigator. Isn’t that a way more practical than having only navigation device?
    Anyway, I should have thought about it BEFORE now;))
