ok

Warning! When you install any new system menu, it removes priiloader. If you do this be sure to reinstall priiloader immediately before exiting the hbc or you could make the situation even worse.

If this is the route you've decided to take, I suggest using modmii's region change wizard to "change" to your current region. It will ensure u reinstall all the region files, not just system menu, and also direct u to immediately reinstall priiloader and generally make the process easier.

You mean should you format the system? Then no, there's no need to. Just restore it in BootMii.

i forgot about that point, and you're right dangerous if not certain on repair... most likely only damage is between ios 50 and ios 80. i don't have a wii already for a few years, so i'd miss a bit if detailles. sdorry, hope you didn't waste the priiloader.
since nus seems to be down, id suggest to use @XFlak tool for the wad files in this range. i thought latest HBC uses ios58, but i'm really not sure anymore.

no i mean use Ohneswanzenegger to reset my nand.bin

Just a question first: does your system menu have the same region as your hardware?
for this can happen with region changed and then update, and it will mean there will be some problems with system software.

Then system menu should be fine.
You can use Ohneswanzenegger to reset my nand.bin, but it will not change much, just removing the installed channels and homebrew channel. The corruption will still be there.
You should update/(re-)install iosses, and maybe redo the hackmii-installation there's also bannerbomb for if you're on 4.2 firmware.
And remember that it's always good idea to reinstall priiloader after updates before rebooting the system.

Is it possible to use modmii? Or the ssbb exploit? Or just restore my nand? Because i don’t have Linux to run bluebomb

Bootmii only launches at startup if installed to boot2, but it may only be installed as ios

TBH I find this thread a bit long a confusing. If OP can recap his situation with details like what he can and cannot access it would be helpful to have it all in one post.

Edit: he says he has priiloader, so launch bootmii from the priiloader menu if it doesn't load at startup automatically

i acsedentaly (semi)bricked my wii can simeone help?

Hey hey! don't do anything yet or things could get worse.

First, explain step by step in a list what you did and why you did it, what your goal was before all the trouble started.
In BABY steps tell everything, like in a diary, to know how to help you.

Ex.
1.- I connected my Wii to the wall
2.- I turn on the console with the power button
......then what?
Ok.

2 when i was going to exit wiiexploer i selected the wrong option insted of exit (i dont remember the option)
3 my wii crashed after selecting the wrong option (i cant seem to find the error screen)
4 i rebooted the console and attempted to reboot hbc
5 the wii displayed the "system files are corrupted" screen

so you can access the system menu and settings just fine, but cannot load the HBC?

I tried doing that but boot mii said it was dangerous to restore

Nand backup should include the keys. If they don't match with your console Bootmii will warn you.
