I used CTR Transfer to region unlock my 3ds, but when I tried to play Pokémon Sun and Smash Bros it just crashes, I read somewhere that it was because of the region-unlock and that extended memory games just don't work/open when you have it, so now I wish to go back and remove the region-unlock! but I can't find anywhere how to do it, when I formatted my 3ds it just starts with the region unlocked and does the same error again! How can I fix it?

Also, CFW already read region-locked games, so I don't think I need the region-unlocker

The guide also does mention that you do have the System Format the console once the region change is done to fix that. Please backup anything of importance and do the system format.

Correction: Region change. Since once you install cfw, you can play 3DS games from all regions.
so now I wish to go back and remove the region-unlock!
That's not how it works. You chose to do it, even if you didn't need to, but you did it anyway..
If you think going back to the original region so you can get the eShop access back just forget it. If not, yes, just follow the same guide to change to your original region.
when I formatted my 3ds it just starts with the region unlocked and does the same error again! How can I fix it?
What error? When you try to play an extended memory game? I thought you had already formatted the system afterward doing the region change?
Also, CFW already read region-locked games, so I don't think I need the region-unlocker
Yet, you did it anyway.. 🤦🏻‍♂️
