the point is that many customers need a restoration file or Akai lock that file to avoid edit or delete. But most of all, AKAI must make a formal apology for causing this confusing

My Suggestion would be to leave it alone. The Internal Storage is too fragile in my opinion. You cant even access it from outside the unit.

SD Cards and SSD Drives are Dirt Cheap right about now.

You'll thank us later

I dont know, if you ask me, its a given you shouldn't mess with the stuff included on it. That would be like going through and cleaning out your Xbox's internal filesystem or hacking your Switch to remove channels you dont want or something.

You bought the MPC and it's meant to be used the way it is, you're not really supposed to go inside and modify it unless they explicitly tell you its allowed. Thats why you have an SD card slot, an internal hard drive bus, etc.. And why they recommend you not save stuff to the internal storage space. Its not the earlier MPC's that came with optional content discs you didn't have to use if you didn't want to. Its baked into the system and you're generally not supposed to mess with that stuff.

Stuck in the old way of doing things.

Simply not understanding/knowing.

“No-brainer” attitude (I hate this one).

Hardheaded people who don’t wanna heed advice (even when it’s documented and proven you’ll likely have problems if you go through with it), saw advice, still didn’t give a flowers.

Everyone who “deletes” factory content is in one or more of these groups whether they wanna be or not, reality dictates that, yes, you are there..
