How do you put the ave file back in without installing the game

[anthony001]

i used jksv to backup my saves and wanted to know how to put in the save file without installing any of the game associated with the save file. this is for when a game has something extra for having played another game

Are you talking about SVI?

9. Export and use SVI files to create save data for titles not installed on your system. For games that detect other game saves to unlock content.

• SVI files are simply the title ID, NACP, and icon packed into a file. Placing them in JKSV/svi will load them as if they are any other game on your switch. They will appear in the save creation menus with the rest.
