Maybe not completely right in this thread, but..

It is normal, that Windows reports a virus in the devkitA64 and doesn't allow me to install it?

So lets say I'm on FW 1.0. I want to use a 256GB memory card for all my emunand stuff when CFW happens. Would doing the memory card update update the system itself to the latest fw??

It can only be updated on game cards or online.
2GB or less = SD [FAT/FAT16]
4GB to 32GB = SDHC [FAT32]
Greater than 32GB (e.g. 64GB) = SDXC [exFAT]
so, your SD Card is exFAT format.
If you want to use without updating, format it to FAT32.

This is the knowledge I got from searching.

I'm on 4.1.0. Is there an estimate on when an exploit will be released?

There isn't. It's a complicated, unofficial exploit in development by hobby developers working for their own enjoyment, and the iteration you want is nowhere near the top of their queue of things to do. It'll be ready when it's ready.

What links/people should I watch/follow to be update of current status of latest fw exploits?

I only have one Switch and buying another one just for homebrew is kinda prohibitive. I've heard there's something being worked on for every possible firmware, but the only thing I could find was that Team Xecuter exploit that'll probably be paid.

just don't update your switch again. there is trustzonehax in the latest firmware. 1.0.0 will get cfw first, then 2.x - 3.0.0 and then 3.0.1 - 4.1.0.

Probably 3.0.1-4.0.1

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

At this point, unless you manage to find a switch on 3.0.0 or under, it's just better to update

:/ i really wanted to try switch homebrew. Whatever i'll wait a little more then :$

Would we be able to use FAT32 GUI Formatter to make it work this way? http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/index.htm?guiformat.htm

I used on my Wii's 256GB SDXC card and formatted it to FAT32 and haven't had any problems.

I also used this on my external Wii HDD's to format my 4TB & 8TB drives to FAT32 which worked great and am still using them today. While my 4TB is set to 32k cluster size, note that on my 8TB I had to use a cluster size of 64k to see the entire drive, but it works great.

Hey guys, just got a switch on version 3.0.0 I did all that to install HBL. It worked. So I got botw but in the back it has the number (002) meaning I can't play it on my Switch. Since I won't be using my Switch until something good comes out on HBL, is it safe to keep the Switch off (battery at 100%)?

I can not think of any scenario where it would be a bad idea to turn your Switch off. Except when you are in the middle of a system update, but you don't plan on doing that anyway.

I think you're both forgetting about the "use it or lose it" rule. If you ever go more than a week without turning your Switch on and playing a game, Nintendo will storm your house, take back your switch, and kick your dog.
