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.
