GO 730
After sinking deeper and deeper into a bottomless pit, I reformatted the GO 730 internal drive and cleared the flash as a last resort. I the reinstalled HOME to see if it would give me a newer version of the software.
After doing all this, I discovered with horror that the installation process has wiped all my backups, and also the new purchased map with all activation codes without even asking permissions.

As long as you login using the same email/password, HOME will restore any recently purchased maps.

All the other stuff will redownload and reinstall for free, just keep repeating the "update my GO" process until there is nothing new offerred.
