I can’t use the MSET9 Windows thing

[high grove]

Did you do the troubleshooting on screen.

[pearl schooner]

Wdym

[high grove]

It says exactly how to fix it on the cmd promt

[pearl schooner]

I did

Like 2 times

I’m kinda freaking out over this😭

[high grove]

Can you send a picture of the root of the sd card?

That is the whole sd card. The root is the file structure.

press minus on the cmd promt then send a picture of the file explorer tab

[pearl schooner]

I’m sorry I have no idea how to do this 💀 English isn’t my first language

[pearl schooner]

Oh okay

[high grove]

press this then take a picture of your screen

Your 3ds is not reading your sd card. Put it in your 3ds, turn it on, turn it off, then put it back into the computer. You are looking for a "Nintendo 3DS" folder to appear.

what step are you on?

[pearl schooner]

Cause this wasn’t in the tutorial

I just put the sd card back in

About guides

Please only use 3ds.hacks.guide when hacking your system.

3ds.hacks.guide is always kept up to date by the community and is a constant that allows us to effectively help you when you stumble upon an issue, since we know what process you followed.
Other written and video guides are often out of date, or provide spotty information so you are advised against using them. If you still decide to follow one, you are on your own as we will not be able to offer help in case something goes wrong.

[pearl schooner]

Its the same steps tho I just checked

[high grove]

Its the same exploit, but troubleshooting and support is alot different. Its alot easier to troubleshoot a written, up to date guide then a youtube guide.

We also have no idea if the youtuber is giving correct information which is why we always use 3ds.hacks.guide

[pearl schooner]

okay sorry

but up to that step its the same as in the guide

cause I had trouble understanding the guide cause of the language n all

[royal crag]

If it provides steps for Super-Skaterhax (n3DS exploit), then it's instantly outdated, since Super-Skaterhax doesn't really work right now due to certificate issues

[high grove]

its mset9

[jade cedar]

Your 3ds is already hacked. Follow this guide to get the homebrew apps. https://3ds.hacks.guide/finalizing-setup.html

[pearl schooner]

[high grove]

You had to of deleted your nintendo 3ds folder

fyi, the nintendo 3ds folder holds all your games, saves, etc

[pearl schooner]

well its a new nintendo 3ds I got 3 days ago so I didnt have much on there

[high grove]

Well, thats good. Anyways, start the guide at section 4 again. The error should be fixed

[pearl schooner]

[high grove]

yes

[pearl schooner]

okay

[high grove]

your hacks stay even if you reset the system completely.

[pearl schooner]

OMG IT WORKS

Okay and now just continue like the normal guide?

[high grove]

yes, continue the section 4 of the written guide

After that, follow the finalizing guide linied at the bottom of the page

[pearl schooner]

[high grove]

yep, do step 4 and all the rest after it in order

[pearl schooner]

For the version do I type the full thing like 11.17.0-50U

[high grove]

you dont type the system version you type a number correponding to it

[pearl schooner]

How do I know if its new

[high grove]

it should say what to do on screen

[high grove]

send me a picture of your 3ds

It is not a new 3ds

[pearl schooner]

So 1?

[high grove]

Which ever one corresponds to old 3ds and your system version, i dont know the numbers by heart

we dont do piracy here, but yes, your homebrew will be gone because you deleted your nintendo 3ds folder.

[pearl schooner]
