Hacking Homebrew Misc vWii Channel WADs

[NotLuzeria]

I've been trying to create vWii channels for my games using WAD forwarders, but CustomizeMii takes too much work, and as far as I know, can't even boot into .wbfs files. And I created WADs using CRAP but they freeze on launch, forcing me to restart my Wii U.
I assume it's because it's using the USB Loader GX option, but my games just won't appear in USB Loader GX (I have no idea why, they appear in WiiFlow just fine)
So I guess I'm asking for help to fix USB Loader GX, or a different method to create .wbfs forwarder WADs.

I fixed USB Loader GX, now, USB Loader GX has my games and they can be launched via ULGX fine (though the "start" button and SMG2 (AND ONLY SMG2)'s banner is invisible)
However, the WADs that are supposed to launch the games via ULGX still boot into a black screen that practically freezes my Wii U/vWii

Another Update!!!!
This one is pretty serious, going through some options to possibly fix the WADs, I came across WiiGSC, but my PC is so insanely sure it's a virus,
I got it from: https://wii.hacks.guide/wiigsc.html which links to: https://github.com/modmii/WiiGSC/releases
My PC says it's a virus, VirusTotal says it's a virus, specifically "HackTool:Win32/Keygen"

I know it's common for a bunch of Homebrew software to be falsely flagged, but this is next level, a level of flagging I've never seen my PC do, EVER.

Use the newer test version, but check for updates in mid June.

It's obviously not a keygen and the source to the application is right there on GitHub. I personally created the new forwarders for it too.

I wouldn't say it's very obvious, my computer has never been this strict about something being a virus. Can you explain what characteristics make it falsely flagged as a Keygen? I'd rather be safe than sorry, and worst case scenario, I'll use it in a VM.

Also, my USBLGX is up to date.
