Is it possible for you to fix moving multiple files at once? If you select more than one and move through sections of the sd card it’ll only transfer one

I'm not sure if I get you, but the way the multiple file selection works is that you can select multiple files/folder from one location and move it to another. You can't select multiple files from one path, and then select files from another path and try to move them all in one go.

I don’t know how to phrase it lol. I’ll try to give an example. I add files to the root of my sd card and I want to move them into a folder that’s inside a folder. It won’t move all of them, but i can move them into the first folder just fine. If it surpasses one folder they won’t all move at once.

I think I understand what you mean now. I'll try to reproduce this and see what's going on.

Joel - will this work with XorTroll's FSP-USB kip plugin ?

Not sure what that is so can't comment. If it's a general sysmodule that's not targeted towards a specific app then sure but I really can't say.

It allows homebrew applications to access external USB drives and it would actually be quite cool if NXShell could at least view the files on there, maybe even move files between microSD and USB drive in some manner if that's possible?

@Joel16 Hi there, mate. It's a pleasure to talk to you.

As you may already know, many people here (myself included!) are looking forward to UMS support in NX-Shell. I'm just writing you because some of these people have been asking me if I have heard about you or anything

Some days ago, XorTroll and I released a static library for this very same purpose, deprecating fsp-usb in the process: https://github.com/DarkMatterCore/libusbhsfs.

Feel free to try it on your own and suggest any changes. It requires no dependencies at all.

Hey, pleasure to talk to you as well. I saw this about a week ago and thought it was fantastic. I've been a little busy over the past few months and got a couple un-pushed changes on my local that I need to get around cleaning up before I can start looking into this. I'll definitely get around to this and some point and will let you know if I have any troubles. Cheers!

Hello Joel, I pulled down your code with the intent to submit a PR for you, however I noticed that you are running your own virtual file system which does not interact with the native libnx filesystem at all. This project is not compatible with @DarkMatterCore 's library as written. Even if the device was pulled and an adapter was written to translate between your custom vfs interface and libnx's. However even if this was done, there are other things that would get in the way such as when copying a file, the source device can be an device, but the destination must be the SD card. These limitations could obviously be worked through one by one, but best approach is probably to just remove your custom vfs and just use native libnx's filesystem.

If you want me to, I can submit a PR to remove all of your custom VFS code + add libusbhsfs.

Let me know.

Hey Blawar, that sounds like a good idea. I am willing to take a look.

Hi guys, i'm trying to read a comic on switch with nx-shell. I have a bunch of jpg in a folder. There's a way to zoom an image?

Yes, I think it was either one of the analog sticks or one of the shoulder buttons. Just try them all. Worked for me.

When I open NX Shell on my Switch (Atmosphere) I get a black screen with only NX and a slash (probably signifying the root folder) showing near the top left corner. Anyone know what's going wrong here?

You need to delete your previous config files

NX Shell (latest ver) always make my Switch's AMS system crash (need to reboot). I don't know what is the issue here.

I open homebrew by using R + A button.

Switch v12.1.0|AMS M.19.5|E (Mariko device).

You should only run NX-Shell via title override or forwarder!

I ran at the 1st time and it was working fine. Ran the 2nd time, it gave me error.

And I don't know what is "forwarder" or "title override"? I'm new to Switch.

A forwarder is an app to be installed that loads an NRO from a specified location and launches the tool or HB menu in high memory mode. This is similar to the "Title Override" which is done by starting any installed title while holding down the R button. I have attached a HB-menu forwarder which accesses the hbmenu.nro in the SD-card root when it is installed. All HB applications started over it will be executed in high memory mode.
