Need help restoring EmuMMC

[dragon184]

Hello everyone,

I know there are already several posts about restoring emuMM, but I haven’t been able to find a solution that works for me or perhaps I’m not searching hard enough.

I recently encountered some problems with my SD card and decided to back up everything, including the partition-based emuMMC. I used EmuTools for this, as it had worked for me in the past. However, when it came time to restore, EmuTools didn’t seem to recreate the hidden partition or restore it correctly on my newly formatted SD card.

I also tried using NXNandManager, but I couldn’t figure out how to proceed with restoring the backup.

Here’s what I currently have saved:

emummc/HPE0/

emummc.ini (content below):

[emummc]
enabled=1
sector=0x0
path=emuMMC/HPE0
id=0x0000
nintendo_path=emuMMC/HPE0/Nintendo

Inside HPE0:
eMMC- 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, BOOT0, BOOT1
Each eMMC file is around 3.96 GB, except for 07 (1.33 GB).

Can someone kindly guide me on how to restore these files properly? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you so much in advance!

Best regards,

I have never used Emutool so I don't know whether it is supposed to create the partition or not.
But you can do it manually by following a guide to mod the Switch from the beginning. That way you will create a new EmuMMC as a copy of your SysMMC. When that is running you can restore the backup over the new EmuMMC. I assume that will work.
