Hacking Restoring clean nand backup

[Lynn:-)]

Hi, I have a hacked switch which I created a clean nand so i could restore at a later date, however, the backup was created on FW 9.0 and I have since upgraded FW to 10.0.04 but didn't create a new back up. Is there anyway I can still restore or what would I need to do if any in order to restore. I have not installed and NSP or pirated games on switch but I have installed stuff like goldleaf, turnips (for animal crossing new horizons), capturesight. I didn't realise this would have caused an issue. I was still on FW 9.0 until a few weeks ago when someone advised me to update FW on stock because I thought the switch was banned and they were telling me how to check to see if it was. Is there anything I can do as I wanted a clean nand because I can't remember if I have dirtied my sysmmc

Check your fuse count for your current firmware against 9.0.0,

9.0.0 has 11, and 10.0.4 has 13 if your fuse count is 13 then probably it won't work.

I have checked via hekate and the fuse count does say 13 :-(

Also I have not used Sysmmc for anything e.g game dumps, custom themes etc so I was wondering if I do a back up now of FW 10.0.04 would it still be a clean back up? I don't even think I have been on the Sysmmc at all but if I have I would not have used anything on there that I cannot use on Stock itself.

Restore your clean backup as your console is currently not clean.

Can anyone help with restoring nand. My system will only run on fat32. I have 15 files that are split I don't want to run the restore with the split files that sounds like a bad idea.

I have never got Exfat working however somehow had the 32 gb file and was able to save it on my pc.

You don't need to combine the NAND file, hekate should be able to read it fine.

So it will tell me if something is wrong with the split files before moving forward?

As long you have all the parts of the NAND files you should be fine.

Backup worked flawlessly. I forgot exfat still can work for you if you are only use Hekate. Back to ofw from now on.
