You can install the same system version as what is already installed in order to just install the exFAT update. Make sure you install the exFAT support before you format your SD card as exFAT.

Okay, then i will first install through my fat32 sd card again the 7.0.1 version but with exfat support. After doing that i can format the sd card to exfat and copy the all previous file to this. Right?

Hi,

I bought a switch recently and updated to 7.0.1
Today I took full nand backup and installed SX OS with 128 GB FAT32 SD card
Right after my SX OS installation is successful I formatted my SD card to exfat and tried to install games
My switch is now booting into original FW instead of CFW(I realized exfat SD card are not supported) and asking for some update to use SD card
Now the problem is Nintendo yesterday itself released FW version 8.0 and it would get installed as a part of this stupid exfat update
Is there any way i can make it work?
Please help!!!!!!!
I am pretty excited to use my switch.

Download the switch firmware 7.0.1 and also download choidejournx. Run choidejournx from the homebrew menu and install 7.0.1 over the top of itself but choose the exfat option.
