Hacking Question pertaining to Hekate launch shortcuts

[Tryfle]

I just updated my switch CFW to the latest stable version of atmosphere and to firmware version 16.1.0 and in doing so, I messed something up. Whenever I hit launch and select my emuMMC CFW boot option I get this error:

However, if I manually select the payload from the payloads button it loads atmosphere just fine. I am trying to fix this but I just don't understand exactly how editing the "hekate_ipl.ini" file works.
[CFW - emuMMC] fss0=atmosphere/package3 kip1patch=nosigchk emummcforce=1 atmosphere=1 icon=bootloader/res/icon_payload.bmp
This is my current boot shortcut in the ini and I don't know what to do to update and fix this.

Any help lol?

Can you still load up Hekate? I believe you can go into Hekate Tools and you have to Restore eMMC. But I’m not 100% sure. Maybe somebody has a better solution.

Yeah, I can load up Hekate just fine. I'll try it.

But yeah something looks off on your ini file. I can take a look tomorrow when I’m at my PC

I did find the restore thing, but there are a bunch of different options and I don't know which one to select as it seems like you could easily mess something up here.
There's eMMC boot 0 & boot1 restore, raw gpp and eMMC all. Not sure which one I'm supposed to select, I think it's really just an ini issue as the manual payload works and it SEEMS to boot into the emmc but I really don't want to end up using the sysnand and getting banned.

Yeah just wait. I’m sure to it’s your ini. Don’t you have a backup of your ini file before you updated? Look at that and compare.

I'm pretty sure the ini didn't change at all and that's the issue.

Hey, no worries. I solved the issue. I was just being stupid and forgot to update Hekate. I haven't touched my Switch since like March since the joycons were beyond broken and my parents wouldn't let me ship them out to get repaired up until recently, I forgot nearly everything. Thanks.
