For windows:

I use python 3.7.1 and splitNSP

and I go to command prompt and .nsp is in desktop and splitNSP is in the desktop. I type this:

cd desktop and it is now in desktop command prompt

then type python3 splitNSP.py -q Super Mario Odyssey.nsp and I got this message:

python3 is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

and I try other one:

splitNSP.py -q Super Mario Odyssey.nsp

Got this message:

usage: splitNSP.py [-h] [-q] filepath
splitNSP.py: error: unrecognized arguments: Mario Odyssey.nsp

however if I Rename it to Mario.nsp and its split into two parts

Can I rename them to Super Mario Odyssey splits.nsp before put into nsp folder of the SD card for ReinNX ?

Reason I use fat32 because exfat won't let me use ReiNX on Nintendo Switch. Just Splash then black screen. Fat32 works fine. :(

I don't understand.

:
Try this:
py splitNSP.py -q "Super Mario Odyssey.nsp"

Thanks but I found one much easier is called nsp divider and it's working perfectly fine but I want to try NoSou81's version below. Again, thank you so much! :D

You have a usb type c cable right? You could save yourself a headache by doing usb install. No need to split even on FAT32, no need to remove your sd card over and over. It's the best way to install games IMO.

Thanks! However.. I don't have hbmenu.nsp according to this video and I installed everything according to the video. The problem is that I saw my tinfoil screen doesn't have USB Install NSP which this video have. Confusion.

Did you install python? Plug in your usb to computer and switch and open tinfoil. Open zadig choose options list all devices and choose libnx on driver choose libusbk then choose install driver. Open a command prompt and enter PIP install libusb Let it in install then enter PIP install pyusb let it install. Make sure your nsp is in a foider on your desktop and move usb_install_pc.py to your desktop. Choose the usb install option in tinfoil. In command prompt type cd desktop then type usb_install_pc.py <folder name>. If you did everything correctly it should work.

If youre still having problems after this ask in the thread.
