i put a lot of games until my sd card is full.the last game i want to put is an NSP file.i want to install it but since you need double amount the size of free space of the game's file size, it doesn't seem like it's possible. no matter, i just have to finish a current game and then delete it.i recently finished "okami" and deleted it by pressing "+" >> manage software >> delete software.but i still can't install the NSP game.i checked my sd card and it still have 2GB of free space.that seemed odd as Okami is 9GB big.so is there any method of deleting an NSP games?
oh before anything, i'm using SXOS.
i've tried couple of things.one guy mentioned by using tinfoil and delete the game's "ticket" and i did.no luck.
tried to look for it in data management but the game's title/icon is nowhere to be found.there are many nsp titles here but okami is not there.
tried to venture nx shell.it kinda confuses me.
i do have my attention on the "registered" folder though which contains .nca format (nintendo/contents/registered).this folder contains 20 GB content.they have files with the size around GB big.if this really is the installed NSP files, is there anyway to know which file is which? the file name is long and kinda randomly generated looking.(example: f253af72b203fee9785a583d6231db46.nca the folder name is 0000007D/)
is all contained here the installed NSP files? i don't want to delete some randomly and accidentally delete a crucial file which later led my switch to be bricked :p

recently wanting to try the "devmenu" solution.but i don't get all of it.someone care to elaborate on this?
this gives me a headache.next time, i should probably just download xci files.
 
If you have a type c cable you could do the usb method and you don't need double the space, don't have to add the nsp to your sd card (or delete it) or even have to remove your sd card at all.
