if you Are using EmuNAND you will lost everything, If you are not using it you will lost all the games on the SD.

Make a backup of your saves using JKSV before format your SD Card.

is there no way to browse the archives to retrieve the saves?

If you didn't fully format you might have your emunand if it is hidden paritition.

Since you've got nothing to lose.


Open CMD
Type: chkdsk F: /f /r /x

F: or whatever the disk manager shows

EDIT: I looked at your post history. https://gbatemp.net/threads/i-cant-boot-hekate.632798/post-10157688
I see your 32gb partition isn't raw. So it's fully possible it works if you assign it a letter.

 

[Antonio-Avila]

Ya que no tienes nada que perder.


CMD abierto
Tipo: chkdsk F: / f / r / x

F: o lo que muestre el administrador de disco

EDITAR: Miré tu historial de publicaciones. https://gbatemp.net/threads/i-cant-boot-hekate.632798/post-10157688
Veo que su partición de 32 gb no es cruda. Por lo tanto, es completamente posible que funcione si le asigna una carta.

i try but i could not

So when you tried to sign it a drive letter it just refuses?

yes

 

[linuxares]

hmm... then I'm sadly out of ideas. You could probably use a recovery software to extract the data on there.

 

[Hayato213]

Did you used a hidden partition emunand?

I don't remember how I did that, but no, I could not manipulate it now.

You can check to see if you have unallocated space.

 

[Antonio-Avila]

yes there was, 29 gb but I could not use it or navigate, I tried to assign a letter, I could not, I tried to enter from the switch could not because the partition that if I could use was exfat32 (would not let me format it in fat32) and to format it to fat32 had to format the entire sd so there is nothing
I'm using the only program out of tons that I tried that can recover deleted files but nah, it's crap, I lost everything.
thank you all for trying to help me

 

[linuxares]

guiformat can make it fat32
