Great. We have title access mow so we can step back through everything one step at a time with no short cuts.

1) install sigpatches again…see link above
2) remove “tinfoil game” using Data Management under “settings”
3) delete /switch/tinfoil*
4) download tinfoil installer nro
5) open hbmenu using title override
6) install tinfoil

before i change patches i want to check if my parches where not working i already installed nps games with other installers would that be possable? and my homebrew stuff is working?

Please do what @binkinator wrote above, so we can get further

Would it work to install like this

 

[Blauhasenpopo]

Yes.....BUT did you follow all steps that @binkinator suggest to you ?

 

[fixed13]

Afaik...that's not working on Swicht

I see, so if I want to move games / software from system memory just simply choose the Settings Menu -> Device Management -> Move to microSD -> (thick the games / softwares that I want to move) -> Move?

 

[Zap2000]

Yes.....BUT did you follow all steps that @binkinator suggest to you ?

no i do that now

what about exosphere.ini and default.txt we had done together will the new patches overwrite change them?

one last thing to try if this doesn’t work…

A) download fusee.bin from here and place it in /bootloader/payloads/

B) add this entry to the bottom of your hekate_ipl.ini.

[tinfoil]
payload=bootloader/payloads/fusee.bin
emummcforce=1
icon=bootloader/res/icon_payload.bmp

C) Reboot your switch

D) When the Hekate menu comes up select this “tinfoil” option to Launch.

E) Repeat the cleaning steps one more time to get rid of Tinfoil and then reinstall Tinfoil from scratch.

1) install sigpatches again…see link above
2) remove “tinfoil game” using Data Management under “settings”
3) delete /switch/tinfoil*
4) download tinfoil installer nro
5) open hbmenu using title override
6) install tinfoil

if you are booted into CFW and Emunand then yes, Emunand replaces Sysnand completely so if you install to “system” then it will be written to Emunand.

if you were to boot into CFW on Sysnand OR just straight into OFW and installed to “system” it would be written to Sysnand.

It really is just that straightforward.

So i do have twice the Memory.....my SD Card and the emunand on my SD Card ?

(I didn't knew it either, so didn't answer )

Yes, in theory you have even more than double as you could expand your Emunand as large as you’d like, but then again you could just install to SD and achieve the same result so maybe it’s not worth it? Virtual can be confusing some times…

emmc is very similar to a soldered in SD card. This is why I personally don’t see the point of upgrading emmc to 256G. A very expensive way to get 256G of flash storage when you could more easily add a larger sd card for the same effect.

 

[Luisfontes001]

thanks thats whats i was thinking but now im sure

 

[Blauhasenpopo]

Now we know more

 

[Tayfunx3]

Is there a way to go back to the hekate menu while in atmosphere? If so how? I'm using OLED switch with modchip.

 

[Blauhasenpopo]

Mainly ther's a"Reboot to Hekate " option in your Homebrew Menu ?

Have a look there

 

[aubreyk]

Have my Nintendo switch v1 modded. I'm wondering if I can use the settings option to move games from micro SD to internal memory, as my micro sd card is nearly full (games + emunand). Please advise
