Homebrew Homebrew app Tried uploading wii backups on my wii on my wii u but accidently re-formated my sd card instead of my usd drive and now homebrew won't read my sd card

[MrCoconut]

I was trying to play some 'back ups' on my wii and was trying to re-format my USB Flash Drive however I accidently selected my SD Card instead of my USB Flash Drive and all the apps I had on there got deleted. I tried re-formating the SD card again to Fat32 and followed a yotube video to get most of the apps back on my SD Card which ended up looking like this in the end:

When I opened homebrew it didn't recognize my SD Card and I tried selecting the "SD Card" option only to be met with an error message:

I tried to boot up the homebrew channel with only Nintendont and USB Loader GX only to be met with the same error message again. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Your SD Card is not formatted with FAT32 I presume...

Yeah, that or your card is write locked (side switch on your card) or it has died completely.

Maybe it died after reading that Novel of a title lol

Looks like you're using a Mac. It won't format to FAT32, only exFAT. You'll need a third-party formatter to make it work.

I also happen to have windows installed on my computer as well, I’ll try to format it on there.

Haha I formatted it like 9 times on my MacBook. I’ve been told windows it the only one that can actually properly format it to Fat32 so I’m gonna try that in a bit.

UPDATE: I Have tried formatting the SD Card to FAT32 on windows and the only apps I had on their was Nintendont and USB Loader GX, however I yielded the same results as the video in the post.

I've been thinking of just fully un-instaling the hombrew I have on my vwii and just reinstaling it. Any ideas if that would be a better way of going about this?
