Switch still only loads Hekate after I accidentally started an update of the game when starting a game. However, the airplane mode is activated, so an update should not be possible at all.
I'm a complete beginner, I'd like to know how everything works myself. But the CFW (Atmosphere) of my switch, has been installed by someone who also installed the RCM chip (Trinket M0). This would like unfortunately for the slightest help always money, and that I send it to him. This problem should also be cheaper to solve, especially since I would then always have to send them.
Currently there is a 512GB card in the device, which was formatted in FAT32 format. It must be possible to solve the problem without me needing another 500GB somewhere to empty the card first. I think it's just missing a file at some position.
If I want to load the CFW from Hekate, it only reloads Hekate. When I tap on "More Configs" in the Hekte Menu, it shows me:

"No .ini or boot entries found...
Check that a .ini file exists in /bootloader/ini/,
and that it contains at least one entry."

But this folder is empty.

It can't be that difficult to solve this problem and I'm asking people with a clue to help!

Two files or...?? I'm a total beginner...
Can it brick my Switch? Or do I need to empty the card first?? Because I don't have enough space on my HDD anymore, to backup my card. All together my HDD's have still 60GB and my card have 500GB and it is almost full.

Download both Patches from : https://github.com/HarukoNX

Then move the fusee-primary.bin File to bootloader\payloads.

Open your hekate_ipl.ini File in bootloader and add:

[Atmosphere SYS]
emummc_force_disable=1
payload=bootloader/payloads/fusee-primary.bin

or if you use Emunand add:

[Atmosphere EMU]
fss0=atmosphere/fusee-secondary.bin
kip1patch=nosigchk
kip1=atmosphere/kips/*
atmosphere=1

How to find out, if EmuNand is used? And would it help, when I copy here the content of my actual hekate_ipl.ini?

look for an emummc Folder on the root of your SD

Click on Release on both Patches

So I don't have a Emunand, right? (see attached picture for it please)
I'm really very careful about what I do and don't do because this is all new to me and I had someone do it (solder in the Trinket m0 chip and install CFW) who I lost contact with. I am just afraid to destroy the device. Can I just install all these things from the links without breaking the switch? I have read often about finally destroyed switches.

PS: Under the link, I found these three files/options:

PKG2-Patches
ES-Patches
Sigpatch-Installer
