This happened to me too after I upgraded to 3, apparently there's an issue with something? (I have no idea what exactly.) I downgraded to 2.3 again (replaced SD files too) and game launching works fine.
So granted the exosphere is for testing only. After using it and playing 1 game then shutting down it corrupted my nand lol I can't boot Horizon os I can't boot atmosphere and I can't boot cfw anymore just gives me a failed to launch firmware.There are a lot of modified versions of this pack going around, I'm not connected, responsible or justifiable for the content of those modifications.
A new version (with the newest builds) of SDfiles.zip since the version people are using is pretty old and doesn't support 5.1.
It's also easier to find updated files since I'll hopefully always update the GitHub with the newest builds!
I DID NOT MAKE ANY OF THESE, I JUST COMPILED THEM
So why the new release are you asking yourself? It's fairly simple, the SDfiles.zip that came with Hekate-5.x is so old that people are reporting a lot of problems that have already been fixed and that is kinda sad since this problem is actually fixable by providing a place where you can be sure that you're downloading the latest builds and don't encounter old problems.

The same thing happened to me, although I didn't have a backup of my "Nintendo" directory. I managed to fix the problem under Windows by running these commands with cmd:
Code:
cd /D X:
attrib -A -R -S -H /S /D
attrib +A Nintendo
cd Nintendo
attrib +A /S /DReplace "X:" with the actual mount letter for your SD card.
EDIT: Updated to avoid adding the Archive bit to files and folders outside of the "Nintendo" directory.

My most recent back up is 4.1 I'm on 5.1 I can't without blowing all my fuses
Okay so yeah using atmosphere on version 5 with Hekate 3.0 corrupted my entire SD card :/ I can't fix it.
Yoooooo, if I unlink my nintendo accounts, will I still be able to access the demos I installed?
Also would I be able to link them again, if I needed to, on 4.1.0?

Wait, so you can't even boot normally?
Nope.

Just don't use atmosphere boot option in the 5.0 version of these files.. it will corrupt your SD :/ I lost all my save files and had to reformat my console
