So I went about updating my Switch today, this is what I did:
1. Downloaded Atmosphere 1.6.2
2. Downloaded OFW 17.0.1 (this may have been a mistake, should I have got 17.0.0?)
3. Plugged my SD card in, deleted folders Atmosphere, Switch and the file hbmenu.nro (also probably a mistake, normally I just copy/overwrite, for some reason this time I deleted/copied). Also deleted the old fusee.
4. Copied over the new folders Atmosphere, Switch and the file hbmenu.nro, and copied the new fusee. Also copied over the 17.0.1 firmware.
5. New Atmosphere confirmed installed, opened Daybreak and went about updating OFW.
6. OFW confirmed installed. Everything up to date.
7. Had a weird issue where the Switch would crash and report an error. Googled the error and an easy fix was to turn on Airplane Mode. Whatever, I'm banned anyway, so turned it on and the Switch doesn't crash any more. Will look further into it later or wait for a new version of Atmosphere which may fix it.
Now, no games are booting. I get "Could not start the software. Please try again from the HOME Menu." I tried copying over a new game via DBI to see if a freshly installed game would boot. DBI reported that it installed correctly, but my dashboard just shows a spinning wheel and "Could not start the software".
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
