6.- Find (
GUPDATE.GCD ) file,in my case - Nuvi 2465 - it was at M:\.System

GUPDATE.GCD file into RGN tool,RGN tool will automatically run,there you can find your HWID
8.- Focus at the boot.bin section,and there is will be
SAVE button beside SW version
9.- Click "

10.-Open the folder where you save the file "
boot.bin " was and rename it to "
Ldr.bin " (
without quotation )
11.-Copy " Ldr.bin " file into the folder you'ved create first as above .
12.-Example to " M:\ Garmin \ Updater \ XXXX ( XXXX - stand for your HWID folder thats you create before as step # 03 )
13.-Create a notepad file and rename it to "
update.exe "
14.-In notepad type the command like below
rrgn,41,1:/41.bin
reboot
15.You can copy and paste this command in your notepad for easy process
16-Insert the sd in your nuvi, you'll see at boot a software loading message and nuvi will write your NV backup in sd, let it reboot, shut it down, remove the sd and keep
your Nuvi NV backup in a safe place.The succeed process sholud be like below picture

But in my case,backing up Nuvi 2465 the succeed bin file just named as "41.bin ",it doesnt matter,you can check either the process successfull or not by step below.
17.- X:\ Garmin \ Updater \ XXXX \ update.log ,the content should stated like below
Parsing "rrgn,41,1:/41.bin"
Success
Parsing "reboot"
15.To restore it replace command in notepad with:
xrgn,41,1:/41.bin
reboot
16.As i understood,to "
RESTORE " procedure,placed the backup 41 file in the XXXX folder along with the command code as above in " update.txt " to restore
it,am i right?
