Hi,
As far as I know, no it's not possible.
But I would like somebody say otherwise.

How did you delete it? If you were in File Explorer it might be in your Recycle Bin and can be restored from there.
But if you deleted it using the delete button in the tool, I don't think you can recover it.

Hi, I have a Beo 6 which I haven,t been able to start. However today after having been out of power for several years it was recognized by my Windows 10 computer. However it told me that driver was missing. When starting the Config tool I had no user name nor any password so I could not continue. I than tried with Windows tools to trace fault on the Beo 6 and got told that Windows changed something and that I would shut Windows and restart which I did! After that Windowss did not find the Beo 6 anymore!
My questions are:
1 what is the latest version of configuration tools as well as driver for Beo 6.
2 Where can download them? 3 What username and password do I use?
4 will Beo 6 coop with Windows 10 before any newer version is installed as it wos found by connecting the USB cable?
5 I guess I need to restart the Beo 6 by disconnecting and connecting the battery to get it be recognized again!
Thanks Staffan
Hi Staffan,
- The latest Configuration tool is 6.84.
- Sometimes a google search will find the link to the tool to download.
- With the Configuration Tool, you tick the box "Work Offline" and press OK and the Config tool will open.
- There are lots of issues with the different Config Tools and all Versions of Windows (aslo with 32bit and 64bit)
- I would not go down the disconnecting the battery just yet. This is a last resort.

All those question are answered and well documented in this forum or the old one (see archived forums).
Please make the effort to look at it and then come back and share you own experience.
Godspeed.

Is the driver upgraded simultaniusly when connected with the pc or do you have to download it first if the latter were to find it?
You will need to be very patient and expect a steep leaning curve to get the remote connected and running. Then programming is also complex.
The reason I suggest a Virtual Machine (VM) is because they are free (VM Ware Workstaion or Oracle VM Virtual Box) and you can make as many as you want so you can experiment with Windows 32bit and Windows 64bit and load the Config Tool into each.
You can also make a Windows XP (32bit or 64bit) VMs. Windows XP seems to be the most relaible for programming Beo5/Beo6.
But, if your Beo6 connects to you Windows 10 and you can program it, then there is no need to use VMs
