Is your SD card exFAT?

not sure , but im sure i just inserted to the switch just after bought so all prepared stuff was done by the switch itself , until now always worked fine , not sure why randomly started to give errors

edit : is a 256 gb one so i think is a exfat one formatted by the switch itself

exFAT is known to fuck up your Switch stuff because of Nintendo's dogshit drivers, so it's most probably that. Never happened to me personally, but it is common if you interrupt a write from what I've read online.

You can use Disk Utility or whatever to format it to FAT32.

wasn't fat 32 limited to 4 gb of stuff , some games are larger than that also is the switch itself that formatted the sd in it's correct mode the first time i inserted the sd , it was a brand new sd

There are no individual game files larger than 4GB on Switch, afaik. Yes, games can be much bigger than 4GB but the constituent files which will reside on your SD aren't. FAT32 works just fine because of this. I have a 1.5TB FAT32 card full of my own games and I've never had an issue with installs.

exFAT is only useful if you have a modded Switch and need to transfer files bigger than 4GB to it, like 1080p movies [an extremely limited use case]. I don't work at Nintendo, so I have no idea why they keep defaulting to exFAT for bigger cards despite their shit driver.
