Hacking How to propely delete a game ?

[Mat37]

I know. You will answer system settings but. Let me explain.
I installed 3D World with WUPInstaller cuz i had to delete it for some reason.
I restored my savegame right after installing game, without playing to create another save before. And i think that's where the problem is.
Now, when i want to boot gamen i got an error (199-9998) and i got one too when i want to uninstall the game (i don't have err code for this one) but i can always access to what's inside the game (it tells me there is the game and saves but they aren't dated)
So that's why i'm asking. How to delete it now ? Will delete the mlc/title/00050000/10145d00 folder be good ?

I think the location will still be in the metadata indexer. I'm not sure how to correct that. I'm not sure if anyone knows how to remove an entry from that file.

I think it's not a problem if i delete game and reinstall it ?

Try to delete, redownload and reinstall

 

[Mat37]

It send me the same error, only delete, redownload and reinstall

So i can just delete the folder via ftp ?

Try:

Try to delete, redownload and reinstall

and if doesnt work, delete the folder, i think nothing will happen

u could try. if it's still in the indexer, you'll get a question mark tile most likely.

 

[Mat37]

So, the game is always here after deletion via ftp, i tried delete the save with savemii, and it's still here ..

 

[godreborn]

do u have a question mark tile now with the name being ??? it's the indexer that's the problem then. I don't know how to delete a game from it. I don't know if any research has been done on it. for example, mocha still has u install a game via wup, then transfer to a fat 32 drive, assuming u want to use one, so that suggests not a lot of information about the indexer is known. otherwise, we could potentially inject games into it without the need to install them.

But ... What file is the indexer ?

 

[godreborn]

someone told me it was on the root of the slc and it's obvious by the name. I don't know if that's true since I've never looked for it.

I will search for it, i'm trying to move game to usb to format it after, and it SEEMS to be working. I'll just wait and pray

 

[godreborn]

u may have to format the system to get rid of it which means the seeprom will have increased by one and none of your games on usb will work. back up your saves before trying this if u do try it.

I have no games on usb for now, but if i format i'll have to redownload games, reinstall, reinject mods and blabla, i'll do that only if nothing other works

I moved game to usb, and it was able to delete it fine, anyways thank you
