Broken SD

[Hayato213]

Guys I know I have to buy a new Sd lmao, I already did. My question is what to do to that new SD? I don't have a backup

Start from scratch

Oh my, I hope you have that ROM still on your backup drives somewhere. Because that would be bad to see a lost piece of media fade away into obscurity.

sadly that happend...

I mean, if it's fully broken and all data lost.

Just see your Switch as a "virgin" and follow the Rentry guide again.

Thank you! Didn't think it was gonna be so easy. Literally just dragging, exactly like when updating. I remember when I first hacked my switch so many years ago setting up the SD was a hassle, that's why I thought it was going to be more tedious

You should've had a backup before-hand when you first modded your Switch. If you have lost it and have permanently modded files on the NAND, then its impossible to recover.

You were absolutely useless the whole thread lmao, thanks for nothing

Maybe you think of signature patches that are probably something you haven't installed yet. Make sure to grab them as well!

I have installed the sigpatches. I've had my switch hacked for a long time and I kind of know my way around all of this, I just didn't know what to do in the scenario the SD card broke, felt like a very peculiar problem.
