Homebrew Question Nintendo Switch, Homebrew Won't Launch HELP

[PatRock83]

I think I may have disabled the HomeBrew menu if that's possible on my Nintendo Switch

I removed a custom theme from Root/atmosphere/titles and the folders I added for the custom theme I just deleted. I think there was something in them that I needed?

I tried adding "!R" to the loader.ini in the atmosphere folder, but that didn't work either. Not sure if the current path is wrong or what

Everything works i.e. Can play nsp games, retroArch works... I just can't launch the HomeBrew Menu

Could some please have a look and let me know what I did wrong and how to fix it.

There is a folder in the titles folder that manages booting the HBL, I think it has a similar name to the custom theme folder. I'm pretty sure you can just fix it by downloading the latest Kosmos and just copying everything in the atmosphere/titles folder, discard the rest.

That's the old way, and is no longer used. The modern way is having hbl.nsp (this is a exefs nsp, not a """"installable"""" nsp) in the atmosphere folder and editing atmosphere/loader.ini to have the title ID of the app/applet you have homebrew to replace

I just scrapped the whole exFAT... and have been struggling to get my FAT32 build running... I've installed nsps via goldtree... but files won't open... I'm about to go back to exFat cause everything worked...

the problem is your CFW version and Goldtree ... not fat32.
use tinfoil... Goldtree doesnt work properly ... specially on exFat.

I did try both GoldTree and Tinfoil... no games would launch.

I reformatted with exFat, installed with the Mega Installer to optimize my chances.

am currently using ReInx and everything is working again.

Perhaps when the card corrupts again, I'll try Fat32 again. But for now my patience is too thin, spending about 3 days trying to get it working again.
