Are you able to see the Checkpoint app in Homebrew Menu with your SD formatted as exFAT?
You put the nro in a folder called checkpoint in SD:/switch
Just like Wii homebrew, there's no installation as such.

Just a quick question, what's the best route to transfer saves from switch to PC? I tried FTPD and for some reason the saves error when being transferred, FireEmblemWarriors save file is 94KB but when transferring it errors at 64kb and assumes that's the file size and constantly wants to overwrite, any solution that involves not having me to turn off the Switch and remove the SD card?
Use 'memloader' payload which allows you to access your SD card within the Switch itself. I cannot stress it enough, removing and reinserting the fragile SD card will eventually break it (learnt my lesson with my 64 GB).
Get the payload and necessary files to put on the SD. Go in RCM, inject the payload, select SD access (third option down) press power and voilà!
Look it up for more details.
You're a star, literally. Was hoping there was a homebrew app for it just so I wouldnt have to go through the trouble of using a foil to get it into RCM every single time. Oh well. Perks of being on 5.1.0
thanks for the update! works for me on 5.10
able to back up and restore. I tested it on Pokemon quest save.

I have a problem, Chechpoint doesn't show any saves.
It lists all titles correctly (even those uninstalled), but table supposed to show save list for selected title is empty and only shows "New" for every title.
Am I doing something wrong? :/
Checkpoint 3.3.0
NS 5.1.0
Hekate CTCaer 2.3

Did you save anything beforehand?
Checkpoint fetches your saves from the internal memory but you'll have to do it manually.
When you open it, it just creates folder of all save games you have without the saves in them.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 save disappears after reinjecting.
Going to title menu of XC2 just shows the option for New Game, not Continue - as it should.
Switch is on 5.1.0
XC2 is on 1.50
Checkpoint is on 3.3 (also tried 3.2)
I've tried injecting both unedited saves and edited saves.
Any ideas? I lost close to 50 hours, and another with about 5 hours. I'm starting to go crazy!

I mean, where did you get that save? Backed up thoruhg Checkpoint? Edited? Downloaded from the internet?
Backed up through checkpoint. Tried my original save ~50hrs in. Tried a new save about 2hrs in.
I edited the saves, restored them - no save data in XC2.
Tried restoring my backups that I made copies of on my desktop and additional slot in Checkpoint - no save data in XC2.
Saves both edited and unedited worked fine for BotW, so Checkpoint looks like it is setup properly.

@Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.+1 -
@
SylverReZ:
They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite+1
for people with beefy hands. -

@SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme -

A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."+1 -

anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media+1
if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them -
@
BigOnYa:
Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

@BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.
The issue is DRM -
@
cearp:
You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60
