| | |
| ==="Nintendo 3DS/<ID0>/<ID1>/dbs/<import.db and/or title.db> does not exist on SD card!" and "Create them now? (type yes/no)" when using Option 1 or "Invalid database"===
| |
| No valid title database is present because you never installed any titles from eShop on this SD card.
| |
| | |
| #Type "yes", then press Enter
| |
| #Insert the SD card into your console
| |
| #Power on your console
| |

| |
| #Power off your console
| |
| #Insert the SD card into your computer
| |
| #Return to Section I Step 7
| |
| | |
| ===[WinError 5] Access is denied===
| |
| The SD card may be write-locked. If you are using a full-size SD card, ensure that the lock is flipped in the [https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hacks-guide/Guide_3DS/master/images/sdlock.png upright position]. Otherwise, try ejecting and reinserting your SD card.
| |
| | |
| ===UnboundLocalError: cannot access local variable 'haxid1_path'===
| |
| | |
| This can happen when Option 1 stopped because of an error and there is an incomplete installation.
| |
| | |
| #Close the script window
| |
| #Execute the <code>mset9.py</code> script on the root of the SD card

| |
| | |
| ===Red screen after reinserting SD card (Section II Step 11)===

| # Insert your SD card into your computer
| |
| # Navigate to the <code>Nintendo 3DS</code> folder on your SD card
| |
| # Write down the first few characters of the folder you see
| |
| #* This is your true ID0 we will keep in the real Nintendo 3DS folder
| |
| # Delete the ID0 from the <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
