Hello all,

I apologize if this has been answered, i searched and couldnt find anything.

I restored my nand backup successfully, but my switch had my create a new nintendo folder on the root of the SD. I tried simply using my backup, but it wouldnt let me.

So i proceeded, made a new one and moved everything from my backup to the new.

However, i dont see any of my games installed. I assume i have to fix the "link/shortcut" from the homescreen to where they are located in the nintendo folder. I just have no idea how to do this.

Does this make sense? Is it possible? I'd really like to try and avoid redownloading everything.

If you restored a NAND backup of before those games were installed, then you have to reinstall those games.

    Can someone guide me on updating my Switch. I had it modded/jailbroken about 4 years ago. My son let the battery die about three years ago and it hasn't turned on since. I bought the RCM jig, btw.

    I was just about to say I've read the synopsis and it has too many tweeests for my liking.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe the first game on its own doesn't.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But it has a sequel and it introduces a dozen more "revelations" and I say fuck that.
