@froggy55 I've already deleted the folder associated with the program number. Tried booting up my games again, only to be graced with the same screen.

i just suddenlt remembered that 01000000001000 is the folder wher nxtheme installer installs the themes but i read it could also refere to parental controls although that i never had happen i had to delete the contents of this folder because i forgot to uninstall my theme before updating i hope this helps

Ok. So after a bit of testing apparently my Switch can still boot up games. But only if I reinstall them. Also I could only boot into the game after the 1st install; every attempt after produces the error screen

I was having issues with the SD card reader in my V1. Random crashes and such. Went to replace the SD card reader, and it pulled a pin out of the FPC connector. I managed to get it resoldered by a professional, and the SD card is readable again, with no issues reported by Hekate.

Using the same SD card I was using before, I try to launch emuMMC, but now I get the error:

Error while loading pkg3​

atmosphere/package3​

Wrong ini cfg or missing/corrupt files!​

Failed to launch HOS!​

​

Using Fix Archive Bit from Hekate didn't fix it.

Any solutions for this? Im guessing I need to replace the Atmosphere files on the SD with fresh ones, but not sure if there's anything else I need to do.

the pkg3 is referring to sigpatches but you can also use syspatch which is recommended you need to install syspatch 1.5.8 v5 and this remove kip1patch=nosigchk from you hekate lpl.ini and you dhould be able to boot

Right, I was using Syspatch before and it was working. All that's changed is the SD card reader part.

If Pk3 represents the old sigpatches, that may be a residual folder from an old install or something. As far as I know nothing has changed about the configuration on the card unless there's some corruption that Hekate can't detect from atmosphere crashing.

Or the .ini file got overwritten with the default version in my tinkering and I'm mis-remembering.

Suppose it's best to just reinstall everything at this point.

Hello everyone! My Tinfoil suddenly stopped working ("the software was closed because an error occourred"), so I tried a guide, than another... Nothing worked, plus I messed up all the files in my SD. Could anyone please tell me what should I delete and what should I download to bring my SD back in a working state (plus, I hope to solve the original Tinfoil problem too)?

Thank you in advance!

if you are on latest firmware tinfoil does not work it needs to be updated as for your sd card do a clean install of latest atmoaphere then sys patch than mission control make sure hekeate is on latest version after that test test and see if it boots if it does reinstall any remaining sysmodules you intend to use and you should be good

Everygame I play shows the message 'a new update is available it will be downloaded now' and 3 choices. Is there a way to stop the switch asking this and just jump to start software?

So it turns out I was mis-remembering.

What I apparently did a few months ago was back up the SD card before getting the Switch fixed, but apparently I missed backing up the Atmosphere folder along with everything else, besides the emuMMC.

So I've restore the sd card from the backup using Hekate, and I've got the emuMMC restored, but there's no payloads or sig patches or atmosphere on the card.

In this situation, dropping in the latest Syspatch, sig patches, Atmosphere, and so on should let me boot again, right? Or has this been borked and needs a complete fresh start?

as long as you replace all the payloads with the latest versions as well as sys patch and mission control and the latest atmosphere you should be fine also make sure you use latest hekate

Check your SD card root and payloads folder inside bootloader for hekate.bin

Hi~ I have some problems installing just a single game, maybe some of u can help me?

Im trying to install the first Danganronpa game on my switch (20.1.1 Atmosphere 1.9.5) via DBI (810). The installation goes well but at the end says something about Hash Fixed and is trying to open some directories that dont exists; in short the data is corrupted and i cant do nothing on the home screen, not launch not even check options.

If I install the update then i can see the game icon properly on the home screen but if I try to launch just says that the game is corrupted and the only way is to verify files.

I updated the firmware a few weeks ago and i installed some games like always with no problems so i dont think is sygpatches related

Thanks in regards ^^

When I try to select a game to download cheats, I get the message:

This feature is not available in applet mode. Please launch AIO Switch Updater via application redirection to use it.

Use full ram mode, hold down R when launching a game to enter full ram mode.

The problem is that it needs to be on Wi-Fi, and on Wi-Fi I can't launch games except in airplane mode.

Use exosphere / dns to block server communication ,

 

[Zidane75]

Where is the exosphere located?

I do have this file in my Atmosphere folder, and I have to put the games in airplane mode to launch them.

The config template is in atmosphere config template folder put it on the root of your sd.
