You cannot unless you hack it. Simple as that.

There is no way to export the Switch save out of Switch's NAND without hacking and you would need JSKV or Checkpoint to decrypt and export the saves to SD card.

but... there is other way and it is lengthy process - you have to find someone who has hacked Switch and if you have NSO cloud save, so someone can give a save file to you and allow you to edit, and after edit, you send edited save to someone so they can upload to NSO cloud save system, and you would able to download the edited save to your unhacked Switch. Some people may offer modified save file as exchange for money on Ebay.

He didn't say he wants to transfer saves between switches, he wants to put it on his computer, presumably so he can keep his TOTK progress while swapping over from console to a nintendo switch emulator on PC.

Alright, OP mentioned the PC made me thought that OP wanted to edit the save.

Just back the save up to NSO cloud and ask someone to sign in OP’s account and download the save, and send a save to OP, so OP can use save on PC, that all.

Note: There is a catch, you have to find someone who has experience with account sharing and have necessary tools to protect the owner (host) and members as much as possible from unforeseen consequences (such as console ban, account ban, other security issues with account that can be very embarrassing if you have to get Nintendo involved to remedy the issue). As for me, I don't have experience with this and cannot do for safety reason, sorry.

I have the same problem like OP, just finished my setup with the emulator on my pc but noticed i have my savefiles left on my switch.
I can upload them to NSO Cloud, would you download them for me? Would be awesome.

won't that lead to a ban?

 

[SylverReZ]

won't that lead to a ban?

Yes, if it involves hacking your Switch and modifying save data.

It is very low risk if you use Atmosphere, disable the WiFi (prevent from autoconnect) or delete the WiFi setting, use JKSV and don't run blacklisted games online.

Blacklisted games (need run offline only)
1) Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield
2) Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
3) Splatoon 2
4) Splatoon 3
5) Pokémon Scarlet and Violet
6) Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl
7) Pokémon Legends: Arceus

There are few reported about got ban in Animal Crossing New Horizons after used map editor, but hacked assets like stars on trees have been patched. Be mindful about use Dream if you edit the map that is not original, otherwise strangers can report you and delete your map from Dream database.

Nintendo rely on faulty error codes and telemetry to determine if your Switch is hacked, so they ban you. With Atmosphere, they send faulty error codes to SD instead of NAND to protect your Switch.

Don't install NSP so need be in EmuNand with incognito mode, or if you have banned Switch, you can do anything you want to put.

Note: It don't eliminate all of ban risk and you could end up get a ban by surprise. Want 100% safe? Don't hack your Switch at all.

It is very low risk if you use Atmosphere, put Switch in airplane mode, use JKSV and don't run blacklisted games online.

If I follow these instructions, I can put those 100% saves to the NSO Cloud and transfer it to my patched switch?

 

[Moe87]

If I follow these instructions, I can put those 100% saves to the NSO Cloud and transfer it to my patched switch?

Yes, you can. Get out of CFW (custom firmware) on your hacked Switch before you do cloud transfer, it is for your safety.

Do you mean like restart my switch to my normal settings to do NSO Save data cloud transfer?

Just power off and power on - it go back to stock firmware. Check the setting if it is not run in Atmosphere.

Ok, thanks for the information.

 

[championgamer]

If I follow these instructions, I can put those 100% saves to the NSO Cloud and transfer it to my patched switch?

So after I do cloud transfer for Ultimate's data, if I go online with the 100% save in stock firmware, would I be immune to the ban?

Super Smash Bros Ultimate?

If it is your save, not other's save, you can safely transfer to other Switch.

If it is other's save, you can get either in game ban or console ban, depends on Nintendo's mood, so it is 50%-50% chance.

Don't install NSP so need be in EmuNand with incognito mode, or if you have banned Switch, you can do anything you want to put.

So even if I do the aforementioned instructions for the blacklisted games like splatoon 2 and 3, smash ultimate, I can never play their online modes again in order to avoid getting banned?

Right, you have to stay offline if you want absolutely safe.

Considering Mario Kart 8 DX also has an online mode, would I get banned if I went online using someone's 100% save data?

Airplane mode doesn’t protect against anything

Stop spreading misinformation this one sentence has caused so many bans
