I bought a 3ds and I'm currently modifying it by following this

It says to navigate to [S:] SYSNAND VIRTUAL, and select essential.exefs, but I don't have an essential.exefs file, can I skip this step?

What version of b9s is installed? I think some things can't be dumped depending on the b9s version installed. It mentions something like that on github. Try the dump option. I think essentials.exefs is among them.
