Go ahead and try to do the update. This happened to all us who had GRE PSR800s and WS1080s too. Many just went ahead and attempted the update and it went through. Pressing the "menu" key worked on mine. Once I just went into EZScan and clicked to redo the update for the CPU and all was well. It's a microSD card. You can't "brick" it. Wiping it clean and starting over has never failed for me.

What happened to this piece of software, I forgot and took an update and bricked my device so was looking for the tools to unbrick and nothing on GitHub, also nothing found using search engines, did that software get taken down, is there an alternative to use?
