Older Garmin Won’t Connect to Modern PC

I have an older (c2006) Garmin Edge 305 cycling computer. Despite its age, it works perfectly. With a new battery I installed last year, it will run longer than I care to ride. I decided to connect it to our home PC to download a recent ride’s data, but it isn’t recognized by the computer. It appears that the Garmin only connects via USB 2.0, while the computer uses USB 3.0. I can’t see it as an attached storage device in Windows and, accordingly, it won’t connect to Garmin Express. Does anyone have any suggestions or workarounds that will alllow a connection? Thanks!

Greg
