Sadly this did not work :/ backed up my SD content, formatted my SD card to FAT32 (which is what it was already on before as well) and pasted back in only the essential files to do everything, went to boot up 3DS and press the button to boot into hbl but like usual it just boots into the 3DS home screen. think I'm just SOL and lost my homebrew and sadly I doubt I'll be able to get it back anytime soon, since I don't have any friends who own a 3DS nor do I own any games that are exploitable (and no money to even think about buying one right now), so no exploitable games for me, and I can't boot into browserhax because of the stupid update nag screen so can't go that route either.
If your system is still on 11.0 you could wait for slowhax
