You could simply change the string to: "Overwrite configuration ini files?". This should make more clear that you are talking about configuration files and patches.ini is not so it's safe to answer no. Another nice thing would be that when updating atmosphere if it finds a /bootloader/payloads folder, automatically copy and overwrite fusee-primary there, sure for this you could also prefetch fusee-primary.bin from github or borrow it from archive's reboot_payload.bin. Also if it finds hekate installed it could ask to overwrite reboot_payload.bin with hekate's. For us that use hekate but prefer booting from fusee-primary.
Good suggestion for the first one but I'll still do it properly since I'll need a dialogue box function either way, and I'll do the second one too

Gotcha that's what I figured. Anyone know how to handle this? I posted the question as well on another part of the forum to get some help
Go into recovery mode by turning the Switch off, holding both volume buttons, pressing and releasing the power button, and keeping both volume buttons held until the recovery mode screen appears. Don't choose any of the options, just press power again to exit. This will erase the downloaded update.

This may be a silly question:
By selecting to download the first zip file (atmosphere....zip), does it also update Hekate? Or in order to update Hekate, I need to also select to download the second zip file (hekate....zip)?

Sorry if it seems like an utterly obvious question, I just wanted to be sure.

If you are not using the most current firmware for the switch, but something old like 5 or 8 with a recent atmosphere from this week, will we still get the proper sig patches or is that only supported from 10.x firmware onwards?

Can this app like the previous one see how many titles are installed/owned on the switch?
Yeah you can see which games got cheat updates. In the tools tab

Yeah, you need to download atmosphere and then hekate

1.1.0 is out with more descriptive text for .inis updating and possibility to download payloads to /bootloader/payloads

Add the possibility to download cheats from Cheatslips?

https://www.cheatslips.com/
I talked to the dev about that for my previous app believe it or not, he was developing an API for his website and approached me. I might actually do it if he still needs someone

Can you support custom paths for payloads? Or better yet,browse for path? I use a Dragon Injector ( :( R.I.P. ) it looks in Dragonboot/1/ dragonboot/2/ etc etc. I would love to use the payload update for my DI payloads.

Edizon do have support for it and using the API. Maybe you can do the same? :) So people can download just the cheats they want and not everything at once ;D

Really? I thought the current cheatslips API didn't allow for cheat "a la carte"

Maybe, but I can't promise anything. In the meantime you can always use NX-Shell to move files around

Does this update bootloaders like hekate as well? If not, do you plan to add that in?
Yes, in the "CFW" tab you can download Hekate. If you have other bootloader in mind, I'll add them too

Hi! My friend is still at 1.0.2, and can't update your app on the Switch! It hangs at 5% during extraction process. Is it because of him using that problematic version? Should he just update manually or can it be fixed?

Thanks in advance!

Edit: so my friend ended up updating your app manually, and everything from updating atmosphere, hekate, sigpatches to downloading latest firmware and installing it with choidujourNX, all worked flawlessly. Again, we can't thank you enough for your app!

So dumb question
after updating everything
does the switch reboot by itself into new cfw or do you still need to inject payload via a PC or whatever?
