oh boy this is a problem.

@d0k3 does one of your tools have a way of reflashing a firm0firm1.bak?
What did you guys do again... -_-

A full NAND restore just works by copying the NAND backup to S:/ (also reverts b9s). Mind if I remind you that's information that could have easily gotten out of the readme? If that doesn't solve it, quick summary of the problem, please. I won't got through 5 pages of thread.

Alright thanks. A lot of people already denied that it would, so thank you.

And sorry for taking your time, but we really appreciate you helping the OP.

basically i updated from B9S 1.0 And luma 7.1 to B9S 1.2 and 8.0 and now no Extended memory apps work. and i did use SafeB9SInstaller To Downgrade and it didnt fix. games still give a error.

The error is that process9's file opening function can't open "boot.firm" on the SD card. It's the same thing that happens when you region change and/or ctrtransfer, and no one knows why.
Backup the NAND and format it from system settings and try again with a cart, this fixes it in the cases above.

When you say that, do you mean format and restore my nand backup? Will i lose b9s?

If I'm not wrong, you can just run SafeB9SInstaller with the B9S 1.0 files and it'll work. After that go back to Luma 7.1.
Don't think that restoring the backup will change the B9S part.
Somebody else please confirm.

    @Xdqwerty, Nice. Which operating system are you installing?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, windows 10 and some linux distro like linux mint
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    dualbooth
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Yeah, I'd recommend having another OS just in-case you want to play games.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least Linux doesn't contain spyware than what Windows has.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, cuz of lag?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No. Whenever you use the internet on Windows, Microsoft collects personal data and installs bloatware that isn't necessarily needed, such as Edge.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Speaking of which
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ,
    I recall @impeeza mentioned some trick about not having bloatware when installing windows where you set up your country to "world" or smh like that

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Yes, you can debloat the operating system, but in some cases for me it just reinstalls them.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ,
    I also recall my brother downloded a "non bloated" version of windows 11 on his pc

  • impeeza @ impeeza:
    @Xdqwerty yes, when you are installing Windows on the first steps you are asked for your current location, you MUST to select «international» so no bloatware is installed, because the bloatware is location based. if this night I have some time I will setup a VM and take screenshots.

    I remember at one point it being pretty much labeled as malware lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think my favorite one was that dancing purple gorilla... I uninstalled that thing from sooo many machine people would be like "Why is my computer so slow?" lol because this thing is using like 30% of your system resources.....
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    This one lady... her son kept installing Kazaa... OK no problem the issue is he would download DBZ movies and they where amazing usually like 2-8KB in size lol can't remember how many times I had to format and reinstall windows over his stupidity. I even explained to him about file sizes multiple times...
