Even after deleting games from the Switch, the titles id and pictures keep showing up in Checkpoint.
There should be no trace anymore of those games on the Switch (I also checked the settings) but even after formatting the SD card, as soon as I reinstall Checkpoint, the old games show up again.

Any suggestion?

Thank you :)

You will need to go into your switch settings and then into data management and then at the bottom of the list is delete save data you just scroll through and delete which ones you dont want

That’s what I did. But they still reappear.

Have you deleted all the backups from checkpoint itself before removing the saves from data managment?
Plug the sd into a pc and remove all the backups you dont need from the checkpoint folder before removing the original saves and see if that makes a difference.

... I have never noticed the “delete save data” option. I’m kinda embarrassed now...

Everything is ok now, thank you very much :)

    Just be careful, if trump ends up winning and using project 2025 America might really change...for the worse.

    In my opinion on all other factors they are pretty much the same.
