So I tried downgrading from 8.0.1 to 5.1 and now when i turn on the switch i just get error code 2137-0040 (0x5089) after regular boot splash. Any idea how to fix this? I used choi to downgrade and I'm pretty sure I used exfat and not fat32.

Edit
I didn’t make a backup. I’ve never had this issue before.

Edit to my edit
I'm guessing that the issue was due to having big N have the newest update downloaded onto the console. Simply deleted and now I'm golden.

Why would you downgrade? I believe you have to go into maintenance mode to initialize the system
Doing what I might need to do in maintenance mode will delete all my stuff. Can I copy my Nintendo folder to a safe place then do that stuff then transfer it back and still have all my games?
