If you installed a9lh already then just download the luma CFW and put it on the root of sd, then load the system :P

Thanks i'll try that, also where are the saves stored? so i can backup them if anything happens again.
What saves? You said is deleted, by the antivirus. Also if you wanna back up saves, use jksavemanager, the 3DS saves are encrypted with the systemn you use it on, the save manager removes the restrictions.

I think that would actually be super-helpful for many people, especially with A9LH in its current "If it's not in place you can't even boot your 3DS" state.

Y'know, I've been thinking about writing a "recovery" tutorial for if an SD Card ever accidentally gets wiped. It's not that difficult, but having all of the information/files in one place might be useful. What do you guys think?

i was thinking the same thing. i was going to suggest using a recovery program, however they said their problem has been solved.

Normally a virus doesn't delete data off An SD, that's Just not how a virus works. A virus infects and copies itself in other files the system itself uses and starts causing harm from inside Windows or whatever you use. I think he did it himself and then blamed it on a virus. Great story bro
