Too bad I didn't read this post earlier yesterday. I discovered one PW2 unit still had the demo.bin file on it and did a factory reset to clear it out.
Factory reset does not destroy files. It just hides them and marks their allocation units as "available".

Please unerase demo.bin before copying files to the shared USB drive. Overwiting a deleted file WILL destroy it. Even if you did copy files to the drive, it may still be there on the drive. I hope it is still intact.

There are many free tools that can recover this file if its disk sectors have not been overwritten.
