Might give these two a try, apparently they work on desktop and offline.
Not that bothered at the moment as more than happy using a tablet.

Next van is gonna have a Mac Studio and a 32" display in it, so might have more interest then. Although, I'm more looking forward to sitting up the top of the alps playing ETS2

you will be able to use Apple Maps on the pc then

Another win for Autoroute. I tried importing all the CC Infos POI into google maps on the laptop just now. It only lets you import 2000 in one layer. There are about 25000 I think across Europe. I managed just the CC Infos wild spots for France only but its quite a limitation. I think Google Earth will allow as many as you like but no routing!! Autoroute wins. (from 12 years ago)

Thanks. Never heard of it but are you sure you can use it on a PC offline?

AI says not but its often wrong.

"No, HERE WeGo is primarily designed for mobile devices (phones and tablets) and doesn't have a dedicated PC version for offline map usage. While you can download offline maps on your mobile device and use them on the app, that app is not typically available for PC use. "

I just tried it on my PC out of curiosity.

The maps were lousy lacking in detail and not even showing minor roads. And it was very slow and sluggish to use. I gave up at that point even trying to see what it would and would not do.

I got mine off ebay, it comes on a thumb drive.

I have limit on file sharing with the version I use.

That's not typical, it shows all kinds of detail once you figure it out, it is a little slow to open but for planning it unbeatable.

Have you tried HERE WeGo?

I tried it years ago not tried it since, must give it a look but stopped as it wasn't as good as others.

Did anyone use the TNT PC program years ago, it was primarily designed for the parcel delivery company, and was really good, but then the updates stopped.
