Required Reading

This is an alternative to the normal MSET9 Play Store guide that ChromeOS and Android devices would normally use. This version ports over the new features of MSET9 v2.0 and features a script that looks far more similar to the one used in the MSET9 CLI guide.

Compatibility Notes

  This script is only compatible with Chromebooks and other devices running ChromeOS. If you are on a Windows, Mac, or Linux device, you should follow the MSET9 CLI guide instead. If you are on an Android device, you should follow the MSET9 Play Store guide instead. If you do not have access to any of these devices, you will need to use an alternate exploit.

What You Need

  • The latest version of MSET9

Instructions

  On this page, you will use the MSET9-ChromeOS script, which is used to trigger MSET9. While the script is in progress, user data will temporarily disappear but will return upon the completion of this page. If you get an error when running the script, please join Nintendo Homebrew on Discord and ping @_themaniac for assistance.

Section I - Prep Work

In this section, you will prepare the MSET9 exploit by temporarily creating a new HOME Menu profile with no user data, and then setting up that profile with only the minimum data required for MSET9 to trigger. Your existing user data will disappear, but will come back when you are finished with this page.

  1. Insert your SD card into your Chromebook
  2. Open the MSET9 .zip file from your Downloads folder, and copy everything inside to the root of your SD card
    • Before copying, ensure that none of the files inside the ZIP are already on the SD card. If they are, delete them.
  3. Go to this website and copy the code to your clipboard.
  4. Open the ChromeOS Files application by pressing Alt+⇧ Shift+M on your keyboard.
  5. Select your SD card on the sidebar on the left.
  6. Open the DevTools Console for the Files application by pressing Ctrl+⇧ Shift+J on your keyboard.
    • You may want to maximize this window to make it easier to read.
  7. Click to the right of the blue arrow on the left side of this menu. Your cursor should start blinking.
  8. Press Ctrl+V to paste the code then push enter. The MSET9-ChromeOS script should start.
    • If you see a warning about not pasting code into the console that you do not understand, type allow pasting into the box then and then push enter. Then, retry this step.
    • This script does not contain malware, sends no data to any server, and does not even require an internet connection. If you wish, you can read the code on the site where you copied it from to verify this.
