The error is related to the module that manages games installations but the errorcode is not documented yet :
https://switchbrew.org/wiki/Error_codes

Have you tried installing the title to the internal NAND?
If that works, it's maybe something with your SD card.

If Tinfoil doesn't work, maybe try GoldLeaf to figure out if it is Tinfoil or something more system related.
Also make sure to use the latest version of Tinfoil/GoldLeaf.
A lot of stuff gets fixed often.

yes. i just figured this out. you need to update your firmware by downloading and installing the latest version. Not from nintendo because that will brick your system. there are install videos on how to do this. i had about 10 games i downloaded and only 3 worked because the firmware was 4.1.0 and not the latest version 11.0.1

What? Nintendo's firmware files will not brick you. And videos are one of the least reliable sources of information.

    aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    in that case, there is no such thing as homebrew launcher for aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    you have to launch your homebrews directly from the wii u menu
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    there is a plugin that display them on the wii u menu, pretty sure it is enabled by default
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    so like it doesnt exist
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
    ?
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    it doesn't exist, at least not for aroma

  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    okay
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    but homebrew is appearing in the home menu btw
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    yes, now I remember it
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
