you're not required to do any fancy hack like this. just wait until a stabler release gets rolled out

It's not really fancy, or a hack. Those wanting to back up saves, edit, and restore them, will only need the save they are editing. Otherwise you are just making unnecessary writes to the nand.
There's no point in restoring 20 quick saves, when you could just do a manual save, back up your saves, delete all the other garbage saves, and restore. With the added bonus of lessening the chance of corrupting saves.

Noticed the link was down also, I wonder why. Maybe an incoming update, maybe someone doesn't want us to have it anymore.

DO you have a link by any chance for the issue page? I'll look of course

 

[EventAssistant]

Please wait for a stabler release to be rolled out soon, being better compatible with more firmwares than the pre-release one. That's why the link is down. It's strongly suggested not to share nros that haven't been distributed by me.

 

[Leonidas87]

Some people are losing out on save because the can not inject. Makes sense to keep that number to a minimum before it gets updated. Must be in the works.

You just copy and pasted my write up on github, stop claiming glory with other people's findings

It deletes all others. I would advice not to do that.

It does not, i've already tried it all this does is replace the saves it does not delete anything, even my album is still present.

It’s still broken on 5.0.2 like what was said above me wait for a stable version to fix the errors

It has been confirmed working properly on 5.0.2, I'm not sure what your problem is.

Before the update, it did delete everything. Now its working fine

 

[INobody]

Works fine for me on 5.0.2. for future updates it would be nice to dump saves in folders with the specific date (so it won’t overwrite something) and a dump all saves at once function for easier full backup purposes

 

[Toni456]

I tried it before that update as well and it didn't for me so idk.

 

[Endlessclouds]

I have 5.10 and it works for me. tested on Pokemon quest save. I backed it up, deleted from the system settings and then restored through checkpoint. bammm. thanks!!!
