Hi I just upgraded my switch, and I’ve been trying to get the sxos program to work and read games from the sad card and my external hard drive, but as soon as the external drive tries to connect to the sxos install page, it says there’s an error. I’ve been trying to fix this issue for some time now, but haven’t had any luck. I’ve followed some of the troubleshooting tutorials in the forum, put the license, boot.dat and homebrew but once I add a game(nsp or xci) it doesn’t show it and says there’s an error please help

Are your SD/HDD formated as FAT32 or ExFAT
Have you tried to load the game from both HDD and SD card
and so on

The firmware I’m running is the 9.1, I have the 2.9.3 version, and my sd card is formatted to exfat, as well as my external drive and no. I have previous game downloads and I’ve tried to see if they could even be visible, but no luck

i got it back to where it will start up normally, but tried to add an xci game, as soon as i started the console the sxos startup picture came up but stayed up for more than the usual three seconds. could the xci file be corrupted?
