Perhaps you didn't read what I typed... I only suggested you make the warning a bit more pronounced so people don't blame you for their stupidity...

I also said I appreciated your contribution, so you don't need to state it's an option you provided as I'm aware of that.

I'm not trying to give you a hard time I'm merely making a suggestion, especially with all the new people floating around.

Short version:

THANK YOU very much for your work, I'm sure this will be helpful to many!
CONSIDER making your warnings a bit more obvious, as to avoid any drama directed at you!
got it boss,
Sorry for the misunderstanding,
and thanks for the warning.
 
So I did hard reset with this homebrew, and when I started my switch again it seems that it worked since I had to create a new user and setup everything like the first time I used it. But for some reason the screenshots and videos I did were still there. Now I´m confused, is the nand cleaned or not? I mean, the screenshots and video wouldn´t be there if the hard reset worked well, right?

the screenshots are just images and videos y just not consider necessary to delete them
and are stored on
User:/album
and
SD:/Nintendo/Album

so this will wipe out everything, how should we restore saves on OFW after doing this? I've been looking for something exactly like this since I didn't have a backup nand but I didn't think it would mean losing everything.

you can't
you get a console as just out of the box.
if you want your saves you can have them in the emunand area


Nintendo loves to save the massive ban waves for right before huge releases. My guess would probably be Luigi's Mansion or Pokemon.
Of course Nintendo has eyes wide open those days, also people tend to commit crazy things in those days as it happened with "pokemon sun and moon" that was filtered before launch and there were people trying to connect online before the official launch
they were ban of course

even if you clean the "nand" by jumping on one leg and screaming 33.
if nintendo detects something weird you are BAN, XD
 
As I've already told and explained in other places this software has been advertised: using this will lead to a ban, in almost all cases.

It is known that Nintendo checks for mismatching erpt and prepo save data, and bans in consequence. Using this on your console will get you banned.
The only case where this would be considered 100% safe would be if you absolutely never connected to Nintendo's servers using your console.

of course it is a real possibility

but at the moment those who have used the cleaning method through hack disk mount have not been banned
I had my console more than 4 months without ban only blocked the url of posts that use nintendo
I could not continue the test because I was banned while trying to use the certificate of a cartridge in an nsp I was banned in 5m so don't do that ever.
but the proxy I closed it a few days ago because emunand appeared in the atmosphere
at that time it was used by many people and they were not ban

the proxy start on 03-22-2019 and end at 1? -09-2019


if you have a backup of your nand or have never connected with nintendo much better, and I recommend that, than using Haku33

but for the moment one thing is for sure, going online doing nothing is ban and
If you never go online, you are banning yourself

and for those who don't have a clean copy, they don't have many alternatives

but of course I only propose a method that is working, it is each one's decision whether to use it or expect something better

People who have been doing it using system modules for clearing erpt save data have been banned for mismatching information. Please do not claim your method is "working".
The precise fact of clearing save data on SYSTEM has even been said by Nintendo themselves to be a cause of device bans.

Ok and what solution do you propose, besides not using it?

unfortunately, who was not smart and did not make a backup before cfw, can't do much

It is not my method and as I said it is not 100% safe
but,
It is working on more than one switch

so I brought a homebrew to recreate that method
that's it

would it be possible to make a windows version of this app that works on nand dumps, It would be especially useful for zeroing the user partition.

Couldn't I still get saves from Nintendo's cloud service?

What is the difference between using this HB software and doing a factory reset from the System Maintenance Screen?

from heaven to earth

the factory reset does not delete anything just resets the user database and something else
compromising data such as telemetry logs, etc. They are not deleted at all
think that doing a factory reset clean your console, you'll be ban

Haku33 deletes everything manually taking advantage of cfw permissions
leaving only the list of system nca installed required to boot
 
I am using atmosphere + hekate.
However, the message to turn off the sxos ftp was displayed, and the "delete system" stopped.

Thanks,it works but I didn't connect to internet yet because I don't have jig and activities autoRCM.
So my question is can autoRCM cause ban?
