3DS:MSET9 fresh

If you are experiencing the "System Settings loading infinitely after reinserting the SD card" error or Mii Maker doesn't appear in the Extra Data menu when trying to install MSET9 using the MSET9 CLI or MSET9 Play Store guides, this page will help you resolve that issue by either swapping to a spare SD card or backing up and then formatting your original SD card.

All of your original games and saves will be kept intact if you follow the steps properly.

Before starting this guide, please ensure the following two things:
 * 1) You have chosen the correct model type (New vs. Old) and system version in the MSET9 setup.
 * 2) * New models have four shoulder buttons and the C-Stick directly above the Y button - Old models have two shoulder buttons  and no C-Stick.
 * 3) You injected MSET9 in Section II Step 10, not any earlier.
 * 4) * If System Settings is stuck because you injected too early (such as in Section II Step 5), just follow the instructions for removing MSET9 and then restart from the beginning of Section II. You do not have to swap out or reformat your SD card in this case.
