STM32H7B3I-EVAL How can I restore the demo program that came with the kit new?

There were MANY demo programs on the evaluation kit on first power on.  Since I have been trying out different example software, I see that I have flashed over the top of the original demo.  I suspect I just need to build another project with another example program, but there are so many!  Anyone know what the example program is called that the evalulation board came with?

Use STM32 Cube Programmer, and select External Loader for the STM32H7B3I-EVAL as appropriate. Go to the programming tab, check if there is a README with notes.

If you just ran simple demos from the tool chain they might have just used Internal Flash

Is it the one listed on the board page?

Usually the source is not provided on the demos.

Since I am relatively new to this, I am able to see all the examples in the example selector.

However, when I go to the Board Selector tab, put in my commercial part number, I only see the board listed.  When the board is selected, I see on the window some sub-tabs listed.  They are Features, Large Picture, Docs & Resources, Datasheet, and Buy.  Where would I find the link to the demo.zip?

Also, once I download the zip, how would I program that into flash?  You don't need to answer this, I am sure after a few minutes of hunting I would find it.  However, if you have a simple tip on how to load, I would be extra grateful!

Thanks also to @TDK 

So the web page was the bit from TDK that I didn't grasp.  The first link that @Tesla DeLorean provided has a list of Binary resources at the bottom.  I didn't see anything in the STM32IDE program with the same name or "compiled demo binary".

I'll load this up on the STM32 Programmer (other program) and report back.  Thanks both of you folks!

It's literally in the post you're replying to. Click the link. Upload with STM32CubeProgrammer.

@TDK I was practicing internet caution.  I don't go downloading zip files from links on any forum... :D  I will try to find them myself however.  When you initially posted your reply and said "board page", I thought you were referencing the STM32CubeIDE as they have board and examples "pages".  I was confused with your link because I expected there to be a "compiled binary" section in that STM32CubeIDE "target selection" itself, but there was not.  @Tesla DeLorean was more explicit that it was on a web page.  That is the only place I have been able to find it.

Interestingly enough, the library is comprised of multiple existing demos with source code already in the STM32CubeIDE examples "target selection".  I have built and used a few of them, but cannot verify it is ALL projects available in source code.  The readme.txt in the "demo library" says it includes the following projects in a wrapper:  STemWin, TouchGFX , Embedded Wizard, Audio player, and Clock and Weather.

Thanks a bunch folks!

Oh, and extra thanks to @Tesla DeLorean because the quick explanation of the STM32CubeProgrammer was perfect.  I have my EVAL kit back running the factory demo.  This makes me so happy both of you!
