Im trying to clear up some space on my nand with ftpiiu everywhere but every import folder was empty. The titleid and files were for nsmbu (which I don't have on disc or installed rn)
I've already started deleting around 300mb of files but I get a lot of file exceptions. Example:

[email protected] > storage_odd_content > meta
Error while deleting
There was an error deleting "iconTex.tga".
java8.nio.file.NoSuchFileException:/storage_odd_content/meta/iconTex.tga:
550 Success

So, is it fine to delete this data and how do I fix the errors? I'm using material files on android but I have Andftp and ftpclient if it helps. No computer though
 
Use caution sometimes deleted files dont register as deleted. Which could lead to corruption.
I have deleted the Update folder manually though to prevent Updates.

Don't just try deleting random files without being sure that it's safe first, you could brick it.
 
Just transfer the games to your hdd. If you don't have one, get one. They are not expensive anymore. Don't play around with saved data on your nand. Or do you want to go to brickland?
Yeah it def was a bonehead move. But my drive is full and I just got a new game disc, so I needed somewhere to install the update. I'm not super worried about bricking since I have a nand backup from the start of the year and one from before I installed cfw, a nand-aid, and ISFX wafel installed in slc already :sleep: I'm not just deleting files at random, it is very obviously a failed install but I just want to make sure yk

I agree with the people who advise you to not poke random files. Just get some USB storage. Even the 8 GB NAND can hold 12 accounts if you don't have games or DLCs on it.
 
I would also suggest deleting an icon tga isn't going to give you the space your looking for either.

Bite the bullet and delete something you don't or haven't played in forever. Ie games and or updates.
