(undo revisions by botman: steps are still helpful, imo finalizing mention isnt that smart considering its a wiki and the page isnt linked anywhere, its not unlikely that the reader will get confused if hes not too much into 3ds.guide, and the wording looks like it was written in 10 seconds, and my revisions auto approve so cant leave that there) Tag: Manual revert |

While New 3DS models can do a similar method through microSD Management, said method has a number of downsides: | |||
* microSD Management does not exist on Old 3DS models. | |||
* microSD Management uses a protocol (SMBv1) that is only supported by Windows. | |||
** Additionally, SMBv1 is heavily outdated, [https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/storage-at-microsoft/stop-using-smb1/ba-p/425858 now a major security risk], and disabled by default on modern installations of Windows. | |||
* microSD Management can cause random file corruption in use. | |||
