Formatted Garmin Drive Assist 50. Unable to boot. Help me please.

Hello All,

Devise: Garmin Drive Assist 50.

Issue: Formatted internal drive (in error).
Current situation: on switching-on the devise, it’s stuck at Garmin Logo.
Its not showing up as a drive on Mac (or WIN). But I tried to start the devise in system mode by holding the corners of the screen. The devise appeared for a few seconds in the updater.exe.

I couldn’t try much but someone suggested running the .rng file using a updated.exe: I am looking for the .rng file for this specific devise.

Any help or guidance will be much appreciated.

Regards

Maz

A .rgn file with updater.exe worked for me a few years ago, what makes you say it won't?

Because he formatted his device.

As far as I know, the simple installation of a cure file in preboot mode is not sufficient and the device must be reformatted (but not with Windows board means).

I know the method with the Cure file only for the cases in which, for example, the firmware of the device has a "crack" (bootloop included).

Hi! Please give me the steps and also show me where I could get the file you have mentioned about. Please know that I am a user not a developer so, I need a bit more of handholding :)
