Please read this thoroughly as I have tried multiple methods and nothing seems to work. I have a full Atmosphere install with several games install on EMUNAND. The install is on a 1tb SDCARD and it is working flawlessly. What I want to do is to make a backup of my install. I have tried all of the following and even though the files are 100% identical, when I boot up my switch with the duplicated sdcard, most of the games appear to not be installed.
Methods I have tried:
Using robocopy and the /MIR option to copy all of the data from one 1tb sdcard to another. Running fixarch in hekate after.
Doing the same with XCOPY. I verified all of the files were identical.
Using a disk imaging program like GHOST to make an image of one sdcard and then restored it on another sdcard. I tried several different disk imaging programs.
I am clearly missing something but no matter what I have tried, no method I have tried will make a working copy/backup of my existing Atmosphere
install.
I am hoping I am not the only one who has tried this and maybe someone found a working method?
The only way I found that works is very intensive and time consuming as I had to make backups of all of my game saves, reinstalled all of my games from scratch, and then restored my game save backups on a new sdcard. Since there are a lot of games installed, this can take days.
