Hacking Accidentally created a second emuMMC (file) in Hekate? What to do next?

[b1ackcoffee]

Hi, I am new to the modding scene. I recently got my OLED switch modded and I was tinkering what I can do with hekate. In the emuMMC menu --> I clicked "Create emuMMC". It started making one without asking for confirmation. There was no option for cancel. So I waited till it finished. New one was called "SD01", while old one was SD00. Hekate autoselcted to new one (SD01). I changed back to SD00 via "Change emuMMC" tab. How to remove the newly created one? I guess as it is a file, I can simply delete it; but I want to make sure before I f'up more. Thank you.

I think you can't unless you format the sd card again

I suspect this too. even though I deleted the SD01 in emuMMC folder manualy, the space occupied by it has not been released. Thank you for replying.

you can use the same NYX interface to set as active the EmuMMC you like, then you can delete the unneeded ones.

I used the interface to select the original emuMMC. There was no option to delete the second one from there. I deleted it by accessing the SD card manually in the Macbook.

you delete files/partitions manually, the interface do not have the delete option because is danger.

Yes, you are right. You can delete the partition on Windows but you can't merge it with another one that has already been formatted

Use MiniTool Partition Wizard to edit your partitions, change their size. REMEMBER LEAVE THE 16MB free space at start of the SD untouched

you can have until 4 EmuMMC on your card, they can be RAW based or File based.
