If you've deleted the TTS files, you need to find another copy of the files from somewhere (assuming that you didn't make a backup first, which is always a good idea!). But please don't ask here; these are copyrighted files, and we don't allow requests which would infringe copyright. A good place to start would be to contact Kindle Customer Service.

err... I seem to recall the FAT can be repopulated. by convincing the Firmware that it is corrupted. Or something....

Perhaps someone else can remember how that is actually achieved.

O.P. will need shell access - somehow.

Then the system will auto-rebuild it if it is corrupted.
But that is going to take some learning new skills by the O.P.

I don't think there is a "magic key" that will corrupt it for them.

Yeah, good point. but I cant actually remember what constitutes as corrupted. I kinda recall IXtab writing x00's over something. perhaps with dd.

and this istigated a self preservation script on the part of the OS.

but the details elude me.

EDIT: Ah no.... READ BELOW...

It doesn't restore said TTS files though

.

If you don't have a backup, HarryT's answer is your best bet, AFAIR, Kindle CS is aware of this kind of mishaps, and has a handy restore package on hand.
