It's still not clear to me if I can remove a downloaded System Menu update. I have a 3DS on System Menu Ver. 3.0.0-6U, but it has downloaded some unknown more recent version to which it is prompting to upgrade.
If I go into my System Settings and tell it to perform an upgrade, it says that it can do so without connecting to the Internet. So there must be a stored update on here somewhere.
I have tried removing all data from my SD, but the System Settings continue to say that it can perform the update. I don't want to format the System Memory, but if this will remove the downloaded update then I will do so. But I want to first confirm that this will remove the downloaded update.
Is there something else to try?
Or do I not need to be worried at all? Can I just use a game with a 4.1-4.5 firmware update and it will use the game's update and not the downloaded version?
My end goal is to update my 3.x 3DS to a 4.1-4.5 3DS. I have a Gateway 3DS in my possession.
Thank you for any help.
