Hello, so I played Zelda Totk on pc using an emulator and I just got my switch hacked with the pico-fly (tinfoil)

is it possible to transfer the saves from the PC to the switch and would work?
if so, can you guys help me with the process? thank you

Just google and you will find the answer.
I have done from mine switch to pc and pc to switch and it works.
 
Yep you need checkpoint on your Switch, and just copy the save from PC to the sd card in switch/checkpoint called saves. Then load checkpoint and restore the save (you will need to create one first on the Switch by just playing long enough to do that).

Yuzu or Ryujinx save should be on your PC in appdata/roaming. I think you can load the emulator and open save folder from the game if you still have it installed. But if not, just go to your appdata folder by showing hidden files (if you aren't aware of this, I have no idea if you are or not) then roaming, then yuzu or ryujinx. Then find the save.

You can use DBI (what I used) or JKSV too.

I'm in a similar situation. I have a 'savegame_2.bin' save from PC but now I want to move it to Ryujinx. How do I do that? Ryujinx save files look completely different (names are very very different); even if I manually rename 'savegame_2.bin' from PC to match a fresh save in Ryujinx, the game just complains that the save is corrupt.

I looked at DBI/JKSV. They seem to be used for extracting saves from Switch, which is not what I want.

Googled a ton as well. No luck.

Any idea?
