I didn't install the SDXC update before, so now I'm trying to use a FAT32 SD Card to bypass the Switch asking me to update.

However, even when I use FAT32GUIFORMAT, (at 32kb cluster size) the Switch still asks to format the SD card. I also used the minitool partition wizard to format to FAT32, and it didn't work.

Does anyone know a way to format the SD Card so that the Switch will just accept it without asking to format it?

EDIT: The stupid FAT32 GUI FORMAT app that everyone here recommends fucked up for me. It set the partition to "Logical". I set it to Primary using minitool partition wizard, and it finally worked.
