Homebrew Question Remove EmuNAND after switch banned?

[Glisern]

At some point I must have messed up because my switch is now banned, probably happened a year or so ago.

This is not a big loss, as I never actually play online. However I do have emunand which now just takes up space on the SD card.

How do I undo everything related to emunand, to regain all the space?

IIRC, I am using Atmosphere and Hekate.

Hi, emunand not only protect you from banning (is more do not protect you at all) emunand avoid to brick irreparably your switch, and allow you to get back to a know state any time, I hesitate you to keep the emunand and never stop to using it. if on any time you get your switch screw you can always format your sd, create a new emunand and start over with no problem at all, but if you mess your NAND you get a very expensive brick

Backup your saves with Checkpoint, and reinstall everything you had in your NAND. Remove the SD card from the switch, slap it into a computer and using a partition namager, like the one built in Windows (9 Ways to Open Computer Management Windows 10 (minitool.com), and remove the partition using the Storage/Disk Management option to delete it and reformat the card.

Or use a partition editor to delete the partition and merge the existing one with the blank space.
