Ok, new question. ModMii asks "What is your System Menu Region?", which is currently 4.3J but when it asks "Select the System Menu you would like to upgrade/downgrade to" the only option is the recommended 4.3, there is no option for "U" to go from 4.3J to 4.3U, just 4.3J to 4.3.
Should I select 4.3U as my menu region even thought it's on 4.3J?? Will this install the 4.3U firmware??

Ok, after a little more research it looks like ModMii will not change the region of a Wii, but it was recommended to very carefully use AnyRegion Changer then use ModMii to mod it. I'll see if I can find it, the like originally posted no longer had it available to download.
Edit 1: Hmmm - Anyone have any more recent ways for me to get this 4.3J Wii to 4.3U or is there another setting in ModMii that might do it during the mod?
Edit 2: Ok, so I used ModMii on my JAP Wii and it worked great, just like all the other Wii's I'd worked on. The modding process brought up all the exploits in English so there was no problem installing everything. My only issue now is that the console still boots up in Japanese and all the Wii menu selections are in Japanese, but all the apps are in English and just hitting BACK or LOAD in Japanese is easy enough to get the going. I was originally worried that I was going to have a problem with AnyRegion Changer because the Wii needed to be modded first, but now that I can see everything I load onto it in HB is in English I'll get around to seeing about changing the region at a later time. All Wii & GameCube titles working as expected, in English. Thanks @DeadlyFoez for the encouragement to go forward with this tonight!!
ModMii was about to finish downloading its files for hacking, but then Malwarebytes detected a "ransomware" (that I was not able to see what was; and I failed to find a log of that detection), and ModMii... just closed suddenly. I'm honestly not sure if that was something else, or a false alarm from the antivirus. I am also not sure whether it downloaded everything already. If this serves helpful, I'll run a tree command on my SD card, USB drive and ModMii installation:

To follow up, this worked great. I never needed it before and always just used the first option on ModMii. The region change guide in ModMii worked perfectly.
Now all the menus on my Japanese Wii are in English. Thanks XFlak for such a great program interface!!
Anyone had issues with Corsair Voyager sticks ? I formatted my 8GB to WBFS or FAT32 , it is not recognised by the Wii . Also , looking for Priiloader installer and WiiMc Channel Installer ,both with WiiMotion+ support

I found this program to be very helpful, so thank you for that.
However, now that I no longer have a need for it, I would like to remove it from my computer. Strangely, it does not seem to be appearing within Programs and Features, nor does there appear to be a seperate executable for uninstall. I feel like an idiot for asking, but what am I missing here? Any help would be appreciated.
Ah, I see. I feel stupid for not realizing it myself, but at least now I can stop worrying over it.
Thanks for the help and thank you for making this application. I found it to be extremely useful, and will certainly turn to ModMii again in the future if the need arises.
Not a stupid question at all. Most apps include uninstallers, mine does not. I'm surprised I don't think I've ever been asked this question before, and I should've probably at least mentioned the "uninstall" procedure on the website somewhere. I'd do it now... If only I weren't too lazy to update the site... Lol

I've had times when I didn't even get the BootMii screen and had to force it down and go back into re-launch the Letterbomb. One of mine actually took 4 trys, but most worked the first time and a few took a couple trys. Just force it down and try it again to see if it works. If not try it 3 or 4 times. Yes once the BootMii screen shows it does take a minute or so for the PRESS 1 to show up, but not that long.

It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
