Place them either on the root or in /sxos/nsp and launch their installer.
If you don't have a clean NAND backup, you cannot completely format the console. A factory reset does not completely format the console. If you want a safe way of updating to firmware 6.2, use the homebrew application ChoiDujourNX.
Yes.
Try using
Kosmos.
Hekate is the best tool for backing up the NAND. Make sure you dump boot0/boot1 and eMMC raw GPP as these comprise your full NAND backup. If you want to save some space and don't mind losing save data as well as installed content, you can dump eMMC SYS instead of the raw GPP.
FAT32 is objectively better than exFAT since we have ways of bypassing the 4 GB limit on FAT32 but more importantly, exFAT has the chance to corrupt your SD card unlike FAT32. The only purpose of exFAT is when you are restoring the eMMC raw GPP or rawnand since it is larger than 4 GB and cannot be split when restoring.
Both Atmosphere and ReiNX come with the default homebrew applications to install backups in .NSP format. Certain packages of Atmosphere come with more useful homebrew applications such as NX-Shell (file manager).
It is possible to update games in CFW but you risk getting the console banned in doing so. Its safer to acquire the game updates in .NSP format and install them.
Don't think ReiNX supports customization of the button combo for the Homebrew Menu.
If the SD card is exFAT and your current firmware doesn't support exFAT, that may cause issues with the homebrew menu. If the SD card is not formatted as FAT32, do so now. If the SD card is larger than 32 GB, you will have to use a third-party program such as GUIFormat.
I don't believe there is a way to do that. And do you own Xenoblade Chronicles 2 legitimately? If so, you may be set as the Secondary console for the account the game belongs to. If you don't own the game, try reinstalling it.

If the SD card is larger than 32 GB, you will have to use a third-party program such as GUIFormat. Also ensure that the 100D folder is under /ReiNX/titles as well as hbmenu.nro is on the root of the SD card.
If you want to, yes you just update the ReiNX files on your SD card with the ones from the ReiSwitched Discord Server to get 6.2 support.
The only way to check if your slot has been irreversibly updated is by reverting to a firmware below 4.0 and trying to load a retail cartridge. If it works, its not updated but if it doesn't, it has been updated.
