Dumping Games: What am I doing wrong?

Modernized YouTube for Wii U

YouTube SR Wii U (Modernized YouTube) I'm excited to announce a mini-project I've been working on: YouTube SR Wii U! It's the familiar YouTube app, but with modern graphics. I not only updated the initial graphics displayed when you launch the app (The images are at the end of the post so you can see a preview of what I did.), but also several internal elements, such as the boot sound, etc. I'll let you discover the rest for yourself! This app is based on the latest version of YouTube for Wii U and is region-free, so it doesn't matter if you have a US, Japanese, or European console; it will all work. The app is packaged in WUP format, so you can install it like any other app or game using your preferred installer. Please leave any feedback in the comments of this post. (Note: You still need to use the GiveMiiYouTube plugin. This is a graphics update, so the code remains unchanged. I encourage you to read the README for the release on GitHub to understand everything.) GBATemp won't let me upload the file directly because it has a very low file size limit, so you'll have to go to GitHub to download it. I know it's something very simple, but I wanted to contribute to the community; for me, it's an achievement to be able to share it. Edit: Due to intellectual property reasons and to avoid future problems, I decided to remove this mod while I investigate the matter further, I will probably make the modified files available for download soon, so as not to distribute the complete application. You will need to have your Wii U modifiedI'll make a tutorial since you'll need to use FTPii to replace application files.

Posted this to r/WiiUHacks a few days ago. Was promptly removed by moderators without explanation. Actually done with that website.

Having two different problems with dumping my games on Aroma. Have a FAT32 256GB SD card (with the modded files), and a 1TB USB drive.

The SD card worked fine with WUDD, but eventually ran out of space. I plugged into my computer to pull the files, but even after deleting the SD card contents and emptying the trash the entire SD card is still full. I've checked for hidden files and there's nothing there...beginning to think it may be a counterfeit SD card, but everything else seems legit. I really should not have to wipe it and recopy all my my files just to clear up space.

Also tried to dump to my 1TB USB drive but it's never recognized by WUDD. It's connected via a Y cable and first I tried letting the WiiU initialize it, but WUDD didn't recognize it. I noticed WUDD explicitly requires an NTFS formatted drive, but after formatting in Windows WUDD still doesn't recognize it.

What can I try now?

EDIT: External Hard Drive was formatted incorrectly; formatted as MBR NTFS with ~16KB sector size. SD Card was counterfeit.
