My sd card corrupted and I’m currently trying to retrieve data of some games if it’s even possible but I’m going to do the whole process over again. Do I actually have to do all the system nand backups again , because I still have those saves. I’m just wondering what is essential and what isn’t so I don’t waste time

If you are able to recover your /emummc directory then it will be worth it to keep your emunand…otherwise just backup your emunand :USER/saves data and start from scratch.

First things first make sure you format your SDCard to FAT32 w/ 32K block size (non-bootable) with something like Rufus to help prevent corruption in the future.

Follow a guide and it’s a pretty short operation. Not too many shortcuts to be had.

You don’t say much about your setup so just start reading at the top here:

Ok quick question. I just finished using Recuva and it’s shows all of my files as unknown. How am I supposed to know which ones are game save data or emmumc

These are all the highest size files on there. Could any of them be game data? :/ What is usually mp4. files?

MP4 files are typically movies. You are looking for an emummc directory for your installed games. If you can’t find it with a recovery tool there’s not much else to do here but backup your emunand game saves and then format and start from scratch.

Here’s a tut that explains how to backup your emunand (if it’s available);

On CFW, why does the current version display my last firmware instead of the switch's latest firmware? (15.0.1)

It's been multiple times now that when I try to launch my emummc from Hekate is freezes my switch and I have to manually power it off and re-inject. Could there be a reason for this?

It's inconsistent since it usually works the second time to go into emummc.
I did remove the entry to be able to launch sysmmc, so that I only have emummc and stock, but other than that it's normal.

I'm not sure what the problem is.

Did you update your injector with latest Hekate.x.x.x.bin (or latest fusee.bin…if that’s your preference)

Do you mean Atmosphere? I updated it to the latest version and updated the switch's OFW firmware via Nintendo's servers. I never touched the system update on CFW.
He's not talking about Atmosphere. He's referring to emuMMC. Do you see that E at the end? That means you are currently in emuMMC.

Recently, when I turn on my modded oled switch, it only boots straight to original stock firmware. I no longer see the hekate boot screen followed by atmosphere then into custom firmware. The light underneath from the hwfly chip turns from solid blue to light blue before going off doesn’t turn green. Will attach a video as well. Is anyone familiar with this issue that can assist? Thanks in advance

You know what version of the chip you have?
