Using Switch like a usb with sd card inserted

[Badman112]

Ok i know i have asked this question to some forum before, but that was awhile ago so maybe something might pop up now.

Is their anyway to use the switch while powered on and connected to the computer via usb that will freely transfer files ect.

Notr using WiFi FTP.

Sorry for the noob question

you can access your SD Card over USB without rebooting
allows to mount the SD card on PC via USB cable
To install:
- Put the nro on switch folder on SD
Only work on firmware 5.0 or higher.

Use sx installer. You can install nsp's and run xci's without even touching your switch while docked. This also has the added benefit of not having to clear double the space needed to copy and then install the game on your sd card, since the base nsp is on an external.
