===Required Reading=== | |||
This page will assist with finding the correct IDO in the case you have 2 or more. This can occur when using the same SD card on multiple consoles, or after reformatting your console without your SD card inside. This is a waste of space, as only the ''true'' id0 can be used by your console. | |||
===Instructions=== | |||
{{info|It is recommended to make a backup of your Nintendo 3DS folder before following these instructions.}} | |||
# Rename <code>Nintendo 3DS</code> to <code>BACKUP_Nintendo 3DS</code> | |||
# Insert your SD card into your console and power it on | |||
# Wait for your console to generate SD card data | |||
#* Your applications will have disappeared. This is normal and will be resolved shortly | |||
# Power off the console and insert your SD card into your computer | |||
#* You should now have a newly created <code>Nintendo 3DS</code> folder in addition to your existing renamed <code>BACKUP_Nintendo 3DS</code> folder | |||
# Determine the correct ID0 (32-character folder) in the newly created <code>Nintendo 3DS</code> folder. | |||
# Write down the first few characters of the folder you see | |||
#* This is your true ID0, which we will keep in the real Nintendo 3DS folder | |||
# Delete the ID0 from the current <code>Nintendo 3DS</code> folder | |||
# Move the true ID0 folder from the <code>BACKUP_Nintendo 3DS</code> folder to the <code>Nintendo 3DS</code> folder | |||
# If it exists, move the <code>Private</code> folder from the <code>BACKUP_Nintendo 3DS</code> folder to the <code>Nintendo 3DS</code> folder | |||
