Goldleaf

Goldleaf is a multipurpose homebrew tool for Nintendo Switch!

Similar to the well-known 3DS homebrew FBI, Goldleaf serves as a file browser/manager/editor, title manager, user account manager... and more!



Let Goldleaf make your life easier while dealing with more or less technical Nintendo Switch stuff!

Alright, time to release v0.3!
You can find the release on GitHub, as always: https://github.com/XorTroll/Goldleaf/releases/0.3
This one has many, MANY changes:
  • Now it's checked that the base folders inside "sd:/goldleaf" are created before entering certain menus.

  • File browsers won't refresh the current directory's contents after copying a file as it was pointless and caused delay.

  • This version of Goldleaf supports libnx v2.0.0, which fixed a few bugs with USB, and also added native keyboard support.

  • Now files and directories can be renamed in file browsers using the native keyboard.

  • Now new files or directories can be created (files will be empty) by pressing L (for files) or R (for directories) in a file browser.

  • Now the star feature, NSP dumping! This is quite experimental though, and could be unstable. Be careful using it!

  • Another console memory partition can be browsed appart from the three others: PRODINFOF

  • Brief information about the different partitions is displayed when selecting the console memory browser.

  • The path of the key file has been moved from "sd:/goldleaf/" to "sd:/switch/" as other homebrews use this path.

  • After removing tickets no dialog will be shown, the footer will inform of the process instead.

  • The top part of Goldleaf has been redesigned, which has a mini-text for the current menu. (e.g. current directory in SD card or console memory browsers)

  • A warning dialog is displayed selecting USB installation as it's quite unstable for the moment.

  • Fixed small bugs with SD card NSP installation.

  • Now file/directory copying has a progress bar to follow the copy process, instead of freezing the UI.

  • WEB BROWSER! Yeah, you've read right, Goldleaf is the first homebrew tool to provide support for the console's internal browser.

  • Account manager! You can replace user's icon, delete them or rename them. Anyway, replacing the icon can be dangerous and banbait!

  • Now no cert files are required to install a ticket, not even with NSP installs or USB installs. Goldleaf contains the public cert directly.

  • Minor fixes on several dialogs and texts.

Is the Web Browser feature not showing up for anyone else on v0.3? Does it have to do with SX OS Stealth Mode?

Great work as always, XorTroll. This tool is one hell of a homebrew.

The web browsing function isn't shown on the nro as it is only available on the installable version for technical reasons.

so I tried this out and couldn't delete linked accounts, kinda like d*vmenu. avatars i was able to change once but now i get 2168-0002 crash doing anything accounts related so even starting games that ask for accounts. any way to reverse this other than restoring nand? my nand backup is two months old (think i did it around the smash leak) i knew the risks, i'm already banned so i'm not concerned about that. sx os, not using emunand. not a big deal as i have my nand, just will be a pain in the ass to backup saves and reinstall anything i installed since. and just for custom avatars lol. i'd def add a bigger warning for other users in the future. maybe like red text or something idk

about 10 hours later browsenx was released will try out both. I used Goldtree to install browsenx.

Edit
Where is the web browser located for Goldleaf. Not seeing it in the main menu.

I like that Goldleaf has an nsp, since I wasn’t really following too much not sure if this is the first one but I’m glad I installed it because I don’t really need to go to homebrew browser anymore to use it for usb installs. Two apps that exist basically on the same day to use the web browser. I have both nsps installed now. One is just going to be a bit quicker to use.
