They all just say Nintendo 3DS
 
Its probably encrypted cia files iirc this tool only works with .3ds and repacked/decrypted cia files as it cannot read the icon etc from a encrypted cia

Actually looking at the pic above I guess thats no longer the case (as its showing box art rather than icons) so I guess its using the same method for cia as for .3ds....so I think it should work....

Those CIAs are not recognised because the unique ID differs from their corresponding .3ds releases. If you post the name of the game and the unique ID that it lists for the CIA I can add the boxarts for them.

Oh, and as for the NSMB2 cia, I added the boxart for it manually last year.
 
Did the cia title ID parsing ever get fixed as that may be the issue as cia files had their TitleID jumbled which would cause them not to be ID'd correctly, funny enough its only NSMB2 that has a different titleID :P
 
Cia title ID parsing got fixed in version 1.7 and the latest is version 1.7.1. Make sure you update before saying it doesn't work!

Latest downloads can be found here: https://mega.nz/#F!1B9BlbaI!srJg5nTE_qaxJyHDIU9GhA
1.7.1 64 bit click here || 1.7.1 32 bit click here

Also make sure you get the latest images from the database: http://no-info.no-ip.info/3ds/database/latest.7z
And I recommend you grab the box art images as they are better than the cartridges: http://no-info.no-ip.info/3ds/box-images.rar
Lastly if anything doesn't match YOU CAN EDIT IT YOURSELF ON THE WIKI! THIS IS A COMMUNITY PROJECT THAT REQUIRES EVERYONE'S PARTICIPATION. COMPLAINTS == NO PROGRESS. ACTIONS == PROGRESS

Result of following ALL the above:

It was just a question (albeit without a question mark) nice to hear it was fixed I was just trying to figure out why his cia files weren't being displayed properly

It was also directed at the others who were posting that it didn't work in some way or another ;)

I can say for sure, my all cia that not is region free show icons.
And RF not show icon without covers.

Covers hide icon-not icon in cia files
 
Well with 1.7.1 more show up but a bunch still say Nintendo 3DS so I guess ill stick with folder sorting for now.

Such as? Because for that I can just refer to what I said earlier:

- Also make sure you get the latest images from the database: http://no-info.no-ip.info/3ds/database/latest.7z

THE PROGRAM UPDATE =/= THE LATEST IMAGES. Images are obtained from the wiki and like OP said a database crawler collects them and bundles them in latest.7z. Update wiki (ANYONE CAN DO THIS!) == Updated images.

Simply make an account on the wiki and you can freely edit it. Look at other pages to understand the template. Main page also has a guide page linked on what to do where etc.

lol relax ofc im using the latest images
 
I'm using Win10 and it works just fine. Did you restart explorer/log off/reboot your computer after installing the DLL thing?

Yup.

EDIT: Running it again as Admin as @Smoker1 suggested worked, though only about half my ROMs and CIAs actually have their box art. Even old games, like Tales of the Abyss, don't have their box art.
