Hi!

So I am running a 5.1.0 switch with Sx 1.3 and a 200gb card.
Today I installed the dev menu - everything worked out.

Now after adding another file to the sd card, booting the switch up I get an error on any game I want to start:
"The software was closed because an error ocurred"

Does it mean I have to reformat the SD card in order to make it work again or is there anything I can do to solve this problem?

Yep, what does work are games previously downloaded on the internal memory.
When checking the data usage in the switch menu I see all the files that were previously there (f.e. the update files) but they show up with 0mb (whereas previously it was f.e. 800mb).

Just checking with a new sd card now

Another SD card works just fine.
Tested it with just the boot, licence and a xci file.

So I guess completely reformat the 200gb sd card? :(

sd card error.

in my case, it worked after one of the games wanted an update.
you might have incorrectly ejected the sd card from computer. that causes it as well
or homebrews.

are you on a mac?
