So I was trying to update the ISFShax, It was working I have all my backups for NAND and stuff, I was trying to get the Wii U to not need the SD Card to boot into the ISFXhax, but I seemed to have messed up badly as the slc install now keeps Minute and ISFXhax from working, the GamePad shows our Miis, and a few quick menu choices, but the TV will not display anything, and trying to load into stuff via the GamePad only gets an error, but I do have all the backups from before the weird error, I don't care if I need to fully reset this Wii U, I just need to know how to maybe undo the slight error with the slc, but knowing my luck my Wii U is bricked, if somebody can get me a way to undo a bit of this that would be good. I'm not sure what I did that made it stop, it was working fine, now it does not.

Would this tool work? If so I would be willing to do this to fix it.
What do you use ISFShax for?
I would suggest you clean out the ios_plugins folder and use the plugins from the zip from the website. Also disable the autoboot in the minute.ini or set it to the third option the use the SD card plugins.
Right now I can't get Minute to load. This is my problem, Minute was working, I had it working, now it will not boot into Minute at all. So I'm not sure if it is bricked or not. I'm trying to at least recover my menus, I will factory reset this thing if I need to, Minute is not showing up anymore, but the system NAND seems to still exist, what I need help with is getting Minute up and working to maybe restore some stuff, or resetting my Wii U and then loading the NAND backup and starting the modding over once we are restored to a fresh NAND version.
Make sure you have the normal fw.img on the SD card and remove the minute.ini.
If you still have an older superblock installed, then you need to hold the power button at the right moment shortly after running it on but no longer than 4 seconds (or it would be forced of again)
Okay this is good info, but to explain part of the mess I was in, I had Minute running fine, but I was trying to update and use the more up to date files for it and the ISFShax, it loaded fine it was all good, I was trying to setup not needing an SD Card for Minute, but now Minute will not boot up, my Wii U GamePad shows a few Wii U menu things, picking any of them they do not load, so I am trying to undo whatever I did, but the problem is without Minute booting at all I can't backup or restore stuff, I would reset and redo as much as I need to fix this, so all I need is a way to load Minute, or a way to reset my Wii U and just start over, the NAND Backup is safe and I have all my saves and stuff ready to be restored, I think I messed up the slc block, but without Minute loading at all I can't try to recover it.

Okay cool. That worked. And I used an older setup not the up to date files. So this solved one problem, so I wanted to use the up to date files, these are older ones but minute is back.

Okay so you got me restored. I reset a few things, Minute now loads, and I have an older file setup, How should I update the files without messing up things? My file setup is the older one. Do I need to reinstall Minute to use the updated files? My setup is loading off an older install, this is not using the new files in that are in the isfshax_release folder, I have it but I was not using it's files, I went back to my Minute from before I tried using that folder. So using those new files how would I safely get them working and safely get the one file installed on the slc? I wanted to update Minute and that was the part I was confused on before it stopped working.

Mostly back in order now, but I have not tried to update or change anything, I had to reset some stuff, Minute and ISFXhax now load fully normally, but the files are the older ones, I just wanted to get my Wii U back in order, restored some saves, reset a few things, so only thing I need now is a safe way to update the Minute and ISFXhax. I just replace and delete the outdated files right?
Update the files on the SD card (and make sure to remove stale plugins). Then install the new superblock with the ISFShax installer, if you want. And then use haxcopy to update the files on the SLC. Also make sure to not have stale plugins in the hax folder on the SD

So take the new files, replace and delete the old ones, and use Minute to install the ISFShax again? This is how I though this worked, I wanted to update and not ruin anything, I downloaded the folder with the new files in it. So more or less all the steps I did in the first place, but using the new files? I wanted to do this right, I had messed up and party bricked the Wii U, I had to force Minute to boot via the power button and I am back using older files.
