Hacking Can you use the "FBI" app to install .cxi files instead of ".CIA"?

It seems I have a .CXI file. Will it mess up my 3DS if I try to install the .CXI file?

I used the 3DS.guide site to setup the CFW.

CXI is one partition (the single executable one) of a .3ds or cia. It cannot be installed as-is, but it can be packaged into a .3ds or .cia with makerom

For example: `makerom -f cia -o "whatever.cia" -content whatever.cxi:0:0x00`

(Also note that a common source of CXI files is braindump, which makes incomplete dumps)

    What's the point of "confirming" games you know will get released. Like Nintendo "confirming" a Zelda sequel. "We can't be sure Nintendo is working on a new Zelda game, or if a new Zelda game will ever be released, until they officially confirm it."
