You are missing the latest keys in your prod.keys files, please add these to be able to scan the newer games.


I assume that you don't have prod.keys available? which means the app tries to parse the filename, and can fail if the file is not named properly.

Thanks!

i found a bug
but you dont seem to read all feed back

Give the guy a break... He made this tool for free. I'm sure he's getting lot of DMs (from myself included) on top of your bug. It is a great tool so I imagine he's getting lot of feedback. For all you know he could have kids and has 1 hour a night to do this while his family is sleeping. Don't need to be entitled.

as i can see there is only few people giving feedback here so there certainly not more DM
another smart reflexion !

you just happy he works only for your bug right now and want he stay work on it for a while

by the way i just asked if he read feedback not if he works on !
am just waiting an answer and wait for giving more feedback when he is ready !

EDIT: Solved. I was using a bad/incomplete prod.keys. OP - can you add some logic to the code so that this error is more clear? It seems any failure for the keys is reported the same leading me to believe it wasn't actually loading the file.

I just found this today. Checking it out and am getting this message:

Prod.keys was not found, deep NSP scan is disabled, library content is based on file names tags.

No matter where I put prod.keys or what path I set in the settings.json, it doesn't seem to find the key file. Do you have any ideas why this may be the case? I've tried leaving it empty:

"prod_keys": "",

...and putting the prod.keys in the same folder as the app. I've tried defining prod_keys with a path, with a path and the file, and with only the file (being in the librarian folder) and none seem to work. I've also created a .switch folder and put it in there from my home directory. (I'm on Windows)

Is there something I can do to see why this is failing?

edit - I've also tried the console version in WSLv1 ->

me@DESKTOP-JP7NSCQ:~$ pwd
/home/me
me@DESKTOP-JP7NSCQ:~$ ls -l .switch
total 8
-rwxr-xr-x 1 me me 590 Oct 1 11:26 prod.keys
-rwxr-xr-x 1 me me 590 Oct 1 11:35 prod_keys
me@DESKTOP-JP7NSCQ:~$ ./switch-library-manager -f /mnt/h/Gaming/Switch/NSPs/
100% |████████████████████████████████████████| [0s:0s]
Scanning folder [/mnt/h/Gaming/Switch/NSPs/]
!!NOTE!!: keys file was not found, deep scan is disabled, library will be based on file tags.​

Thanks for your help.

you sound like an entitled dick.

btw you didnt ask anything, you made a very clear statement "but you dont seem to read all feed back"
how is that a question? its not.

i have a better idea, code the program yourself and make it perfect for the world to use.


i found a bug
but you dont seem to read all feed back

what your post should read is,

I found a bug,

New version 1.3.7 is out with many bug fixes, and one new feature - support for region on file/folder template.

@johnlescault - you are pretty spot on :)
@samuzomoxo - nothing is personal, please share any feedback you have. pretty sure everything you requested is already implemented.

Thanks all for your support, please keep sharing your feedback

I just tried the new 1.3.7 version, and it's telling me it can't find prod.keys, which is definitely there and 1.3.5 had no problem finding it.

I don't have the same issue - it's in the same folder as the software with that name - maybe check if you have the latest keys or regenerate them?

Have the keys been updated since the 1.3.7 update? The ones I have still work fine with 1.3.5.

I maybe wrong on this but I believe the keys are tied to the firmware of the games - I know I'm running v10 firmware so I have v10 keys which should work against all games at the moment as there isn't any running on games higher than the firmware I have.

I can't see any reason why it would change from v1.35 to v1.37 (I'm using the same keys) but if you've updated games or something then that might be why but that wouldn't explain why your old games aren't working.

It's not that old games don't work. The manager doesn't even see the keys file. It just says it isn't there when it definitely is.

Odd - it's picking mine up so can only suggest there must be a difference in my keys and yours - might be worth redoing them?

Dit you check if the case of the file on your filesystem and in the config file match? It is case sensitive.
I had the same and in the config file it was all lowercase and the file itself had a capital K.
After i renamed the file to all lowercase it worked fine.

Doesn't seem like that's the problem. :(
