My Book Essential WDBAAF0010HBK 1TB - Missing Pre-loaded WD Software

Hi, I have accidentally deleted the WD software that was factory pre-loaded on to my WD My Book Essential WDBAAF0010HBK - hard drive - 1 TB.

Whilst I can access/ view the drive contents I need the pre-loaded software to properly restore my previous backups.

Anyone know where I can download this as the WD website does not appear to include this software.

Thanks
