How to perform a clean firmware install?

I have my Quest Pro in developer mode. I installed something for testing and I cannot get rid of it.

I own the Quest 3 and the Quest Pro. I backed up a free demo called "First Encounters" from the Quest 3 and installed it on the Quest Pro.

I know it was a dumb thing to do but I was curious if it would work, I am so fasinated with the technology so I had to find out for myself if it would. Well, It didn't work...

Now I cannot uninstall it from the Quest Pro. I factory reset the headset but the app is still there. It seems that the app installed itself onto the read only partition so that is why it remains after a factory reset.

Is there a way to perform a clean install of the firmware or a way to manually remove the app with my computer?
