You'll get the list of recent destinations up to about 24, then as new ones are added the bottom ones drop off and disappear.

Your Home and Favourites etc are stored as a .cfg file. You can usually find them in your map folders, one .cfg file per map.

When you delete the .cfg files a new empty one will be created on next start up.

First you must make sure all hidden files and folders are showing so
double click on My Computer.
Look to the top bar for Tools and select it then choose Folder Options.
Click on the View Tab.
Tick Show Hidden Files and Folders.
Untick, Hide extensions for known file types.
--------------------------------------------------
Synchronize with your Desktop.
In ActiveSync click on Explore.
Double click on your Device icon. (x see below)
Double click on Program Files.
Double click on Navigator.

You should now see the file navigator.cfg.

If the file is not there, go back to 'x' but select Storage Card.
Open your map, usually GB or GB Plus and you should find navigator.cfg there.
If you have the France map you should find one there also.

You can safely delete the navigator.cfg files, as a new empty one will be created for you. Be aware that you will lose all your Favourites etc.
