Note: This was created before I knew of any more fleshed-out alternatives; I recommend using TegraRcmGUI instead, which can do what this does, with more features like favourite payloads in the GUI and minimizing to task tray. Though, this is still useful for those just wanting a quick drag/drop once-off solution as it's very easy to setup and a small download. Also, all claims of this being a miner is not true -- I do not have the source for it anymore, but it was made in C# so feel free to look at the code with DNSpy or Ghidra, it has very very simple code.

F.A.Q:
  1. What does this do?
    It detects when your switch is connected and auto executes RCM smashing of the selected payload.
    Think of it as a safe alternative to briccmii/autorcm
  2. Why?
    why not? have it running in the background all the time, and your gucci.
    This proves really effective if your going to be mass testing Payloads or testing LayeredFS.
  3. Did you really spend time doing this?
    Yes, yes I did.
Installation:
  1. Download TegraRcmSmasher here and extract the Win32->TegraRcmSmash.exe file. It works on both 32bit and 64bit and is the only one you need.
  2. Extract it to the Desktop or anywhere accessible, make sure its in a folder.
  3. Put your payloads in that folder.
  4. Download PRAGMAsAutoRcmSmasher.exe here (9.5kb filesize) extract it, and put it next to TegraRcmSmash.exe
Usage:
  1. It couldn't be more simpler
    Drag the payload you want to use onto PRAGMAsAutoRcmSmasher.exe
  2. Now whenever your switch is detected, it will auto smash the payload you dropped onto the .exe
  3. Leave it running in the background for maximum efficiency
Troubleshooting:
  1. Doesn't detect Nintendo Switch but it's plugged in and in RCM?
    You are missing drivers or need to update them. If I'm not correct a better solution for installing drivers came out at some point, where uninstalling/removing old drivers may be necessary, see: https://gbatemp.net/threads/nintendo-switch-windows-drivers-installation-refresh.640234/

I would love to see something like this for a Raspberri Pi which would boot with the System on the Pi.
Means: I turn on my Raspberry pi (connected to a powerbank) and use it to boot CFW on the go.

Thats very possible to be honest. If we can conver the Rcm Smashing to anything really except C++ and C#, we can get it working with JS, PYT etc then its very much possible.

You could hookup your rasp pi with a usb, windows installation, that on startup runs the .exe? lmao
 
This is NOT an aleternative to bricmii/autorcm. They are two different things. AutoRCM makes your console go in RCM mode. This/tegrarcmsmash/tegrarcmgui/everypayloadsmasher loads the payload once it is in RCM mode. Only way for this to be an alternative is for this to somehow use black magic and boot RCM without holding down the pins. If it does, then update the post.
 
this is gonna be so usefull, switch crashes while using homebrew, just shove the jig in and hook it up to your pc for a few secs, i will definetly be downloading this
