Hey guys

I want to transfer a Save file from Zelda

to my switch, but i dont know what folder i have to put in. There is just a save on the Switch self.
but no save files on the SD CARD.

I have 8.0.1 Hacked ReiNX

Are you saying it's on a non-hacked switch? The only way you can get it to put it in the hacked switch is by hacking the other switch, if possible. If you can't hack it you can't get the save.

Depending on if you are transferring from a clean system, there are other people save files out there you can use, just use checkpoint to restore them if you want to keep your other system clean if you have one for online and one for hacking etc.

i make a save file from the Zelda save editor. And i have to put that save file in the Checkpoint folder?

What I do is make a save on the switch for the game, then backup save using checkpoint, then overwrite the save you got with the save you want, then restore it using checkpoint.

Probably it won't load, but you need to run homebrew to backup your own save and then use the online editor to edit it and then restore it, keep it mind good chance you would get temporary/system ban from online service for homebrew/cfw stuffs.
