Corrupt games + tinfoil 0/0 bytes

[Okayermi]

Hello everyone, i'm back!
So, i've been trying to crack my switch for over a month now without success. I've gotten as far as to play 32 hours on pokemon but then my games get corrupt and i need to redownload them. I can't even do that now because tinfoil is stuck at downloading at 0 bytes, other downloaders like tinwoo don't work ether.
Any ideas? I don't want to resort to changing the sd card reader just yet.

Plug in the SD Card in your PC.
Start CMD
CHKDSK /F /R/X X: (X: = the name of the partition of the SDCard)

Wait

Sounds like a broken SD Card filesystem.

How do I know the name of the partition?

What Sd card are you using (huawei, some generic, samsung , sandisk)
and what format does the card have? exfat, fat32?

It's ADATA and it's formatted to FAT32

Correction

CHKDSK /F /R /X X: (X: = the name of the partition of the SDCard)

There was a missing space

It's ADATA and it's formatted to FAT32

FAT32 is preferred, so that's good.
The SD card might be faulty. I had a Transcend card that only lasted a few months before dying, and all the data went corrupt.

It says that if you entered the wrong drive letter. Make sure the drive letter matches the one of the SD card.
That means CHKDSK /F /R /X X: and replace X: with the correct drive letter.

You need to use h2testw to check your card, it's almost sure yours is defective

okay for some

okay for some reason it worked when i put chkdsk X: /f /r and not the other way but it's checking now !

 

[Okayermi]

Okay so it's done and now i can't access it becase it says it's in EAW format, was it damaged or something ?

 

[x3n0]

Do you have an sxos hidden partition perhaps?

Also, check as @impeeza says above to be sure the sd is ok or not.

Sounds like your card is faulty.

ADATA = BAD and worthless SCAM. sorry bro, dont cheap out on these or you'll find yourself still paying full price with extra paper weights lol

 

[Okayermi]

Awww man, well, I guess i'm using that to store... something else? Anyways, what card should I buy? What brand would you guys recommend ?

 

[impeeza]

a good and recognized one, sandisk, kingstone or similar.

Okay everyone, I've gt the official nintendo sandisk sd card! I'm going to follow the switch hacking is easy guide, anything else I should do beforehand?

 

[AntiFly]

did you ever thought about that the tinfoil store you are using is just crap ?
jits eg. is not working for newer downloads at the moment .
try TEKNIK this is most probably still working.

In his case, it was definitely his MicroSD card, but most shops that are still up for the public for free are outdated. The good shops require you to donate/pay. Even after downloading an outdated game from a free public shop, it should still run fine, though it will tell you the game requires additional downloads. From my experience, you'll just end up missing DLCs and updates. I use Teknik, but many of the games aren't up-to-date. Now I use my PC to install NSPs.
