I've done some extensive searches on this online and on this website but have not found a definitive solution.
Context: my new 3DS was using a 256GB card. I'm moving cards around and decided to switch back to an older 128GB card, which to my knowledge is working fine. After formatting the 128GB to exFAT and 32KB clusters, I migrated my data to the 128GB card and popped it back in my 3DS only to be immediately met with this message...
"An error has occurred:
Failed to apply 1 FIRM patch(es).
Press any button to shutdown."
Well, crap. The unanimous answer online is to update Luma, but I've updated to the latest version from June and I'm still being met with the same message. Thankfully I backed up all my data from before the transfer, but I'm not sure how to get my system booting again.
Any ideas? Is it because of the exFAT format? FAT32 is usually recommended but was unfortunately not an option when formatting. I've read that exFAT is a modernized version of FAT32, but perhaps this isn't true?
