[Solved] Restoring the original REmatrix Solo IRs?

So, I'm on a tear, reorganizing my drives -- copying, moving, and deleting items -- and I accidentally deleted an entire folder full of IRs, including my original REmatrix IRs.  Now the stock HALL, ROOM, PLATE, EARLY, SPECIAL options on the REmatrix dropdown just display as disabled.
 
So, what's my simplest restoration?  Can I re-run just one of the 14 or so installation .exes, or must I re-install the entire beast?  I'm hoping for as simple a solution as possible, of course.
 
I'm running SONAR 2015 Platinum on a Windows 10 machine.
 
Thanks for any assistance you might provide me!

REmatrix Solo is in the SONAR Platinum installer. You could manually run the installer or use the Command Center to roll back then update SONAR to get your most recent version back.

Thanks for your reply, scook!  Great, I'll try manually running the single installer.  Fingers crossed!

I experiment a lot with the IRs. Once you restore the IRs, save them as a file so you can always bring them back if you alter the IR file used by ReMatrix.

The first 3 books in "The Musician's Guide to Home Recording" series are available from Hal Leonard and http://www.reverb.com. Listen to my music on http://www.YouTube.com/thecraiganderton, and visit http://www.craiganderton.com. Thanks!

Just to report back:  Thanks again to both of you.  Restoring was easy (by just re-executing the Sonar Plat. installation .exe).  I needn't have been worried.
 
I'm taking the advice to back them up elsewhere, too!
 
Thanks, gentlemen!

This thread started an adventure for me. Along the way I found innounp, the Inno Setup Unpacker. In most cases it is pretty easy to guess which installer contains a plug-in or some content based on the layout of this page. There are a few bits that are not so obvious. Having the ability to look inside installers helps. This tool works on most CW installers. It is also possible to extract files. The OP needed the FACTORY.rir. In this case re-running the installer was painless. Having the ability to grab individual files from an installer is handy too.
