I am running CtrBootManager9 V.5 with Screen-int A9LH installed the current version of Luma (downloaded from here to make payload changing easier) works just fine.
What does your a9lh.cfg have it? Please post that so we can see if it's configured properly.

Well there's your problem! You need to add an entry for it add the line

[entry];
title=Luma3DS;
path=/Luma3DS.bin;
offset=0;
key=-1;

Then use this site to change the payload from "arm9loaderhax.bin" to something different, I used Luma3DS.bin myself.
From there, simply put the Luma3DS.bin at the root of your card.
Luma3DS should show up on your menu after all of this.

Back up your emuNAND either using Decrypt9 or emuNAND Tool and name it NAND.bin. Use Decrypt9 to restore your NAND using the (keep a9lh) option
After that, back up your SD card, reformat it and restore everything back to your SD card. In the "Nintendo 3DS" folder, there should be two folders. Normally your emuNAND folder (now sysNAND) will be the bigger one and you should just be able to delete the old sysNAND folder.

I would like to mention that all posts are suppose to be in English. As well, what am I looking at?
For some reason I have six folders in Nintendo 3DS
5 are garbled numbers the last one is Private

When you use tinyformat, it makes an entirely new folder for each format. So you should have, one old sysnand folder, your original emunand, your first formatted emuNAND, second for your second format. And a random for cause reasons. You should just be able to delete all, but your current sysNAND (if you are no longer using an emuNAND.)

Your config corrected
Code:
[general];
timeout=0;
recovery=4;
default=0;

[theme];
bgTop1=FFFFFF;
bgTop2=FFFFFF;
bgBottom=FFFFFF;
highlight=53BBF3;
borders=000000;
font1=000000;
font2=FFFFFF;
bgImgTop=/A9LH_FILES/bgTop.bin;
bgImgBot=/A9LH_FILES/bgBot.bin;

[entry];

path=/Luma3DS.bin;
offset=0;

[entry];
title=Decrypt9WIP;

offset=0;
key=-1;

[entry];
title=Emunand9;

[entry];

Copy and paste this into your a9lh.cfg
And Luma3DS with proper payload
Just download and copy the contents to the root of your SD card and you are good to go.

No worries I assumed it will be the biggest folder because that's where the most shit is installed to anyway pal

I use Linux, it's not just Windows that doesn't know how to handle copying.
