Hii! I've installed the homebrew channel on my Wii U through Haxchi. Now that it's all downloaded on my Wii U, I'm not sure what my SD Card still needs on it to be able to run my apps (AND PREFERABLY, TO DOWNLOAD NEW ONES!). I'd like to clear up some storage on it, as I'm planning to begin homebrewing my vWii, so any help is very much appreciated! I can't seem to find any good resources on this. I've attached an image of what my SD card currently looks like.
A few things to note:
1. Ignore the folder named "Dad Stuff". This SD card is a hand-me-down, and so far, that file hasn't messed with anything and doesn't take up much space, so it's staying for now. If you think you have a good reason for why I should delete/move it off of the card, please make your case!
2. There's still some stuff from when I first attempted to homebrew my vWii, and failed due to a known bug. Treat that the same as anything else; I can redownload it later, so if it can be safely deleted, I'll delete it.
If you'd like any pictures of the inside of these files to see what could be deleted there, please let me know! I'm thankful for any and all advice/help.

    in that case, there is no such thing as homebrew launcher for aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    you have to launch your homebrews directly from the wii u menu
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    there is a plugin that display them on the wii u menu, pretty sure it is enabled by default
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    so like it doesnt exist

    okay
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    but homebrew is appearing in the home menu btw
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    yes, now I remember it
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma
