This could be a software issue but for me this behavior (on a v1 Switch atmosphere emunand) was a prelude to my SD card losing the ability to write altogether. (i.e. it wore out its writes and locked itself) Now I don't use emunand anymore and have had no issues.

For my OG switch using the old RCM method, I agree, I've had no issues on R58. But it runs on emunand as well

I just updated hekate,atmosphere,sigpatches and tinfoil today.
Unfortunately I am getting
File Forbidden
Invalid PFS0 Magic
I've already checked system and app time, they are perfectly fine.
I am getting that on every update I am trying to install via HBG

Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Thanks in advance and kind regards

there are already other shop replacers if you took the time to read this thread
This was not the content of your previous reply. Again, take it elsewhere if you don't feel like contributing to the topic at hand.

Tinfoil itself is probably endangered with TX being taken out. It could just get no updates, or it could get an update pushed that disables everything.

All these alternate shops are going to struggle for the same reason HBG did, limits on how much can be downloaded from a google account. Anything that gets big is going to stumble.

Basically 'shops may not be long for this world.

It would be nice to have at least something just for updates, because keeping games updated is a pain in the ass.
i know really, i got the games just need something for updates and dlc

Well I can say that I'm mostly wrong. JITS is sort of back, using some new method to get around Google's restrictions, seems to work for now. And Tinfoil is still getting updates, so I guess Blawar is still around (unless he handed the source to someone else.)

Interestingly I can turn on icon view without any SX or tinfoil license. So maybe the maintainer is effectively separated from TX now?
