Sorry if this is answered somewhere but i've literally spent 2 days now searching here, youtube and discord. I can't seem to get a straight answer. Apologies if i spell something wrong or reference something incorrectly. I don't claim to be an expert in this.
Here's the short version.
I have a 128gb card with Hekate, Emunand and I boot into Atmosphere. I have about 15 games installed with various saves. I boot from hekate into CFM emummc
On the 128gb card everything works great. No issues.
But what are the steps to transfer EVERYTHING to the new card. I want my games and saves without having to reinstall everything.
I thought I could format my new 256gb with about 204gb fat32 partition and the other 32-34gb left for emunand? (which i also formatted to fat32)
So initially i just copied everything over and realized it doesn't work because the emunand? had hidden files? I don't know if this is true, I was getting mixed replies.
So I was told to use nx nand manager and backup it up that way and then restore it to the new card?
Sounded good. Took forever but no errors. I don't really understand where it is "Restoring" it to on the new SD card, but it said it was complete.
So i boot back to hekate, launch CFW emummc and i get to the main switch screen and NONE of my games are there. But the homebrew menu is there under gallery.
Please tell me what I am doing wrong. The only comments I got were "it's easy" with no explanation.
It's really frustrating to wait as long as it takes to copy things over just to find out it didn't work AGAIN.
I attached a few screenshots to see if any of that helps.
Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to explain.
