To update just replace files of old version.

Thank you for the great work. I have been a major lurker since the first release of hakchi2 and finally felt comfortable enough to try the softmod last night. I used version 2.05 and had no major problems, except for when I dumped the original kernel and ran zadig (it worked out, but there was a moment when it wasn't especially clear what to do next). Now that I got it to work and have flashed successfully a few times, I am very hesitant to touch any of the files for fear of screwing something up...but I would also like to utilize the font improvement in the latest version. So my question is what specific "files of old version" am I replacing? For example, do I Just unzip the latest version to a new location and then manually replace the hakchi2.exe file, or are there other files to replace as well? A more detailed update procedure would really help put my mind at rest.

If you have a perpetual console USB disconnection/reconnection problem try to use the USB port directly on your PC without using HUBs or cable extensions.

Version 2.07:
https://github.com/ClusterM/hakchi2/releases/download/2.07/hakchi2.exe

Now you can hide selected default games (NES Mini only, will not work on Famicom Mini) and install extended font with all missed characters.
Also some minor fixes.
hakchi2 is distributing as SFX (.exe file) archive now since some versions of WinRAR can corrupt file attributes required by mkbootfs.exe for symlinks. To update just replace files of old version.

Now I need to sleep. I'll write FAQ, changelog and answer many questions a bit later.

Transferred worked perfect! However, my cousin has an NES as well and would like to transfer games using my PC. Will there be any issues?

If I install the newest version of hakchi will I lose my box art and game configurations if I use the newer one or will it just update it from there?

I didnt lose any of those. If you want you can just backup games folder and config.ini file from the hakchi2 root folder and of course kernel.img from the dump folder (original kernel dump)

Just hide them? Or also eliminates them? I want more space.
