Can't Play Games on WiiFlow with USB

Try using fat32 instead of wbfs. The file system is much better, it allows windows to read your flash drive, and it is overall easier to work with. There is a program called “wbfs2fat” (do a quick google search) That will convert your wbfs drive to fat32 without losing any data.

 

ONN drives, alone are of pretty poor quality, but it's also important to note that the Wii is very spotty with USB thumbdrives. It's best to use a USB hard drive or SSD instead. Have you tried any other drives, or even SD loading?

 

@XTHHedgehog if you have a Fat32 partition you should have the games in .wbfs format. If your drive was a D drive, the path would be like this:

D/wbfs/Game Title [gameID]/gameID.wbfs

Obviously replace the two “GameID”s with the proper game ID, and replace game title with whatever the title of the game is (or get rid of it. That part doesn’t matter, its just the gameID in brackets that matters). Make sure it is in this file structure.

 

@XTHHedgehog Then I’m sorry I’m not sure how to fix your issue.

 

@XTHHedgehog thats strange because for me USB Loader GX wasn’t working and I had to resort to wiiflow. I think that wiiflow is better overall though.

 

@XTHHedgehog you can view the thread here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/usb-loa...initialized-switching-to-channel-mode.570643/

If you read my final post you can see that I did end up fixing it... by using the exact same brand and type of flash drive (Sandisk cruiser glide) with the only difference being the storage (8GB vs 32gb)
