Hi everyone.
There is a homebrew that allows me to explore the SD card of a switch connected to a pc?
I mod Skyrim a lot, and it's a pain in the *** to turn off the console everytime i need to fix something or simply add another mod. Same thing when i need to put new cheat codes files for edizon.
Thanks for the help
 
so it can take a bit if you transfer bigger files...else its good

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

and i would use it via titleovertake (launch a game and hold L to open HBMenu)

There is there is another application that I tend to use. It's hosted on GitHub and the page for is on the Temp. I find it to be much faster and it seems to play nicer with windows in my opinion. The only thing is it is in fact closed source. User beware. That said I like it much than mtp-server-nx. Its called nxmtp.

What do you think?
I'm gonna try this too, thanks a lot! What are the danger for a closed source?

EDIT: Yeah it's a lot faster than the other homebrew

Closed-source just means it can't be audited. It could possibly be running some bad code in the background. There has been bricking code in the past. There has also been software that steals sensitive information from consoles in the past. The software probably does nothing malicious. It's been around a long time and there's 20 pages of people talking about how great it is. But there's always a chance.

That's why people like open-source better. At least someone with some programming knowledge can review the code and see for sure what it does.

Got it, thanks again!
