  • Allows you to browse for your NAND backup, no need to place it at the same folder.
  • Shows the option to choose the output destination, which should be a (preferably empty) FAT formatted SD card or any other folder.
  • Downloads the latest hiyaCFW release and decompress it.
  • Autodetects the console region from the NAND dump, downloads and decrypts its v512 launcher.
  • Creates the patched Launcher and bootloader.nds for the custom firmware.
  • Uses your platform's twltool (binaries for Linux and MacOS included) to decrypt the NAND.
  • Extracts the decrypted NAND to the chosen output destination.
  • Installs the hiyaCFW and the patched files on the chosen output destination.
  • (Optional) installs the latest release of TWiLightMenu++ on the chosen output destination.
