I recently got a new sd card that I would like to format for my N3DSXL, I however am on a chromebook and I can’t exactly format an MSD on it, it says that I can but it actually doesn’t do anything, i am calling upon the members of GBAtemp for help

You cannot format a microSD card using a Chromebook in a way that the 3DS likes. You must use a Windows, Mac, or Linux device. Or, if you have a 3DS with custom firmware, you can use GodMode9.

If you already have CFW on your 3DS, you can format the card using Godmode9. https://3ds.hacks.guide/godmode9-usage.html#format-an-sd-card

it says that I can but it actually doesn’t do anything

I have no idea what this means.

Also, why did you post this as a "tutorial"? A tutorial is for you to teach other people how to do things, not for you to ask other people how to do things.

You should use a Windows PC with GUIFormat. See this guide: https://3ds.hacks.guide/formatting-sd-(windows).html

Even you can use Switch Console with Hekate.
