3DS:CTRTransfer/Manual: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 01:28, 29 September 2024

A manual CTRTransfer is an advanced version of a CTRTransfer, used to restore more parts of the system software. It uses the same CTRTransfer images as the regular version, but overwrites the entire CTRNAND instead of just replacing the files that are most prone to damage.

This is an advanced process that should only be used when all other options are exhausted.
It can be destructive if done incorrectly, so use caution.
If you run into any issues or do not understand something, join the Nintendo Homebrew Discord server and ask, in English, for help.
