I had previously asked in another post about my concern but wasn't sure if it was the correct place to ask.
Can you not use multiple sd cards with Reinx? I originally had a 64gb sd card that I had in my switch and when I tried to transfer the files to my 256gb card, it wouldn't work. Reinx would show when the switch was booted up but the homebrew menu wouldn't work.

You only need to copy and paste your files from your 64GB to your 256GB. Format the 256GB and then copy everything. That works for me like a charm

I also did that and it didn't work. It shows the sd card is working correctly but doesn't boot into the homebrew menu when I select album.

it really should be as easy as moving the files from one card to the next.

is your 256gb card genuine? it might be a fake, having corrupted the files (or some files just got corrupted when transfered randomly)

Seems to be genuine. The files don't seem to be corrupt.

Are you able to launch any of your games you've installed (to check if cfw is booting) - Do you have the titles folder inside of Reinx (Reinx/Titles/01000000..../ect)?

Also, if you place your 64gb back in, will it work normally again?

Would also recommend downloading the latest version of Reinx, Homebrew launcher (title folder), then deleting and replacing following: https://reinx.guide/

Yes I can launch the games but unable to enter the hbmenu.
