Typically, that error refers to something not being updated. As it is happening when booting the HBMenu, is there a hbmenu.nro which is from the latest version of Atmosphere? If you aren't sure, then you should open the zip file for the latest version and copy it over and overwrite if there is one. Even though it is an nro file, you don't put it in the "switch" folder. It must go on the root of the SD card (Where you see the folders "atmosphere", "switch", etc).

Hi Thanks for the fast reply.

There is a nx-hbmenu.nro which i downloaded through sdsetup withn atmosphere and it is in the root of the SD.

Does it matter what SD card is named ?

I think it does matter what it is called. I just tried changing the name of mine to nx-hbmenu.nro and I get the exact same error. Change the name of it to hbmenu.nro and it hopefully should fix it. The SD card can be named anything.

I also would recommend to boot into HBmenu by holding the right bumper and launching a game. It gets access to more memory by doing that and some homebrew requires it.

    like i searched all folders
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    are you using haxchi, tiramisu or aroma?
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    no, I'm asking which one of them you are using
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    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
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
    ?
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    it doesn't exist, at least not for aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    ohhhhh
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    on tiramisu you can access it by opening mii maker
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    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
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
