Hi, Some months ago I helped a guy with the same problem.
Solution:
Go to:
This board requires you to be registered and logged-in to view hidden content.

- Choose Etrex 10 in left menu
- Then choose Troubleshooting in left menu
- On the page, under the heading Troubleshooting, go to 8th bullet and click on Forced Mass Storage Mode
- Then you get to a page Recovery and there is an explanation for both Forced USB Mass Storage Mode (first try) and Forced RGN Firmware Installation (escape when previous option does not help).

Perform exactly the steps as described, if necessary try several times.

eTrex10 firmware version 360 :

I have a problem with my Garmin etrex 10 GPS, that, when performing the system update, the operating system was damaged. I was doing the update from the garmin express application installed on my laptop, and by mistake when updating, the cable was disconnected.

And now when turning on the message "SYSTEM SOFTWARE MISSING" appears, and it doesn't work anymore. I have already sent an email to Garmin support. Unfortunately, they don't answer me.
I was searching on google and I can't find the updater for the etrex 10, only there I found the etrex 20, but it is not compatible.

Is there a way to reinstall the OS?

Thanking you for your support.

Did you read my post from June 21,2021 about the Etrex 10. I think you find the solution in that post.

Does your laptop have USB drivers installed ?

If so u could use GarminCure3 and Updater to update your device.
