hi all,

Just wanted to see if anyone knows a way to remove the sd card without my switch then telling me I need to power off my switch and reboot. I only ask because I get annoyed having to reboot into rcm everytime I wanna add something to my sd card.

You can just power off to remove your sd..

That’s the thing, I don’t want to power off as I hate RCMing all the time.
Oh. So you want to edit the contents of your SD while you're in CFW? Get FTPD and Switchident. You can find your IP in Switchident and FTPD opens an FTP server on your Switch. You can connect to it with a client like Filezilla, just type your ip and the port 5000.

Wouldn't recommend FileZilla since they were recently caught bundling malware with their installers; you should use a different client.

No, it doesn't mess up your battery. If you accidentally leave it in RCM, your battery will drain. If you're in RCM too long, you might get an easily correctable battery percentage de-sync.
Remember the Trinket M0 internal install? I wonder if AutoRCM would make it possible to "coldboot".

What if you left your switch in standby and the battery died ? Would that cause the same issue as rcm where you might have an issue charging it ?

On some occasions I don't touch my switch for a few days and it's in standby

You have to connect to WiFi in CFW to do that.

People on here have suggested AutoRCM, if you're worried about your battery, you might want to get the SX Pro or get a high quality jig to make RCM easier....some poor quality jigs can cause problems. Sad that TX doesn't sell their jigs separately because i've heard they are very good

Use Ninite to get the installer.

Turning the Switch off from the OS causes RCM to start automatically with the SX version of AutoRCM. For me and many others at least. These repeated discharges may ruin the battery. At the very least it doesn't help extend the useful life of it.

Turning the Switch off from Horizon should not reboot it into RCM. In the unlikely event that this is the case with SX OS, then don't use that to install AutoRCM.
