Ok ... with this (using the file in the rescue directory) ... however it seems I was using 2.4.1 and that didn't have any filters for selecting only TAR files (At least not in my Chome browser running on Mac OS) Restoring the setup sort of worked ... however I don't see the network settings or the user settings being updated. Also did it only install the Apps in the versions I had, but not the configuration, the PLC program or any of the dashboards I had configured. I guess I'll have to do completely setup everything from scratch, which I have to admit is slightly disappointing. Another suggestion: For me it was almost impossible to find out which version of CtlrX OS my PLC was running with. I assumed it was 2.4.x as I saw most Apps were 2.4.x, but admittedly I would be expecting this bit of information if I click on the "System Information" ... also would I expect it to be shown on the Firmware update page (which doesn't seem to exist anymore in 2.6.1) ...

I inserted a 32GB sd card into the slot of the device, then I selected the firmware-update, chose the System Image archive that I downloaded from the Bosch site, selected the setup archive that I created prior to starting the update and the system selected the sdcard. After rebooting I'm in the current state. Now the UI is complaining about expecting some file named: rexroth-arch01_<VERSION>.img.gz or rexroth-arch01.img.gz, which the linked article seems to show as well, but if I mount my SD card on my mac and have a look, I see this:  I hope this additional information helps.   ...
