Have you tried reformatting your Micro SD card? Also when you have the scanner in memory card mode, and not serial port mode, are you making sure saving data to the SD card has completed prior to removing the USB cable? Also are you remembering to 'Eject' the Micro SD card through Windows prior to unplugging the USB cable?

Make sure you are using a SanDisk Class 10 card 32 gb or less. I noticed the scanner only likes that brand for some reason. Also I have seen issues with the 536 and SD cards. Try to reformat but if that doesn't work, consider a new one.

Also awhile back this was a known issue - https://forums.radioreference.com/u...report-x36hp-sd-card-problems-corruption.html

Maybe it has changed with later firmware revisions but a year ago I tested 3 different brands and down to class 4 and I did not notice any difference between the different SD cards. Class4 are probably much faster than the scanner needs to use.
