Hey guys,

I upgraded my switch's firmware to 6.0 months ago, do to so, I enabled/setup emuNAND and then I used ChoixduJour to upgraded my firmware to 6.0

My question is, when I finally decide to upgrade my firmware (not that I'm planning on doing that anytime soon) should I just leave my switch in emuNAND and use ChoixduJour again or is there a step I'm missing / skipping?

Also is there a reason for me to disable emuNAND? I've disabled it once (by accident) and it brought my firmware back to 5.1 (default firmware when I got my switch).
I re-enabled emuNAND and have since re-upgraded back to 6.0.
I'm assuming that if I were to disable / turn off emuNAND my firmware will go back to 5.1 do to me upgrading my firmware via emuNAND.

Am I wrong with my assumptions / am I doing this correctly?

Oh i'm never planning on using my switch to play games online so the risk of getting banned doesn't bother me.

You should be able to use chudor to update your emunand no prob

And there's no reason to disable emunand if you never want to use sysnand. Unless you want to update the sysnand of course

Appreciate the answer! I knew my questions was dumb / basic but I knew someone would eventually give me an actual answer lol. What are the reasons I should update my sysnand?

Only if you plan to play online some day
But if you don't plan to, there's no reason to update it.

Just make sure you have autorcm on so that you don't burn any fuses
