So recently my MicroSD died and I had to do full CFW reinstall. It wouldn't boot at all so I couldn't extract save files with any tools, I managed to get my whole EmuMMC folder from my SD and I wonder if it's possible to extract save files from there? I think it's a raw partition EmuMMC, file structure is like EmuMMC\EF00 then there are eMMC and Nintendo folders. I have no idea where saves are stored and if it's actually possible so any help is appreciated.

Hi, this will be my very first post on this site, so I hope you feel honored xD .

Your saves are saved on the system side of the Switch. The part you obtained, is the "emulated micro sd card" part. It will only contain installed gamedata. I'm not sure if you made a NAND backup of the eMMC, maybe it's possible to extract it that way.
