I recall you have a US/EU HWID device. Can you please explain some more about the above:
- Does this device have (i) a factory localized factory-loaded LM subscription for Middle East, or elsewhere and if so where?; If it's not MENA LM, then: (ii) are you purchasing 'one-off' official local MENA mapping data from Garmin direct/Authorised reseller; or (iii) are you loading 'unofficial' (i.e. unlocked) maps for UAE?
- How and where did you load any maps and what naming is being used for working and non-working IMG files? (i.e. give the full paths, e.g. "sd:/Garmin/gmapsupp.img"; "device:/Map/<any_name>.img"; etc..) and identify whether each was loaded directly as an already compiled IMG via GarminExpress or made by you using MapInstall from PC data (.GMAP folder). Indenifty clearly in each individual case the source and type of the mapping data used (official LM, purchased, unlocked and compiled with MapInstall or direct load by self etc., etc..).
Be as clear and concise as possible please as i'm now thinking this might be map data related.

I have LM subscription for MENA maps, which until recent attempts were all loaded to the device using Garmin Express, although I did save a map to computer, once which is why I have the 2019 MENA map available. Please note current map is 2022.1 and not 2022.2 (attached screenshot from BaseCamp shows installed maps)
I loaded BaseCamp and Map Install to test ability to access a separate map not on internal memory, the directory structure on the sdcard I was using at the weekend is shown in screenshots (1,2,3) and from the device I was only able to see the 2019 map, in other words in addition to the main maps I mentioned earlier (2) I was only able to see a third map and could not see the 2022.1 and 2022.1 2 from the device (MyMaps); these were two attempts to save 2022.1 to sdcard. These maps were all loaded to the sdcard using MapInstall where I selected only UAE region maps for expediency. In the end, when I could only see the 2019.1 visible, I repeated the exercise saving from MapInstall to device Internal Memory, which is what I currently have working.
