I found the option before, I swear. Hah

Where can I stop USB loader from looking for a hard drive?

I just like using this for the SD and discs for now.

Thanks for your help!

that setting is stored in two different places :
in the settings file (like other settings) and in the meta.xml file (used at boot).

Maybe your meta.xml file is write protected, or the data inside is not good so the loader couldn't edit the info.
try restoring the original meta.xml in your loader's folder (link in my signature, or on official website), or edit the meta.xml yourself manually by removing the commented lines and editing the argument to disable auto mount usb.

    @Xdqwerty, Yeah, I'd recommend having another OS just in-case you want to play games.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least Linux doesn't contain spyware than what Windows has.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, cuz of lag?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No. Whenever you use the internet on Windows, Microsoft collects personal data and installs bloatware that isn't necessarily needed, such as Edge.

    @SylverReZ,
    I recall @impeeza mentioned some trick about not having bloatware when installing windows where you set up your country to "world" or smh like that

    Yes, you can debloat the operating system, but in some cases for me it just reinstalls them.

  • impeeza @ impeeza:
    @Xdqwerty yes, when you are installing Windows on the first steps you are asked for your current location, you MUST to select «international» so no bloatware is installed, because the bloatware is location based. if this night I have some time I will setup a VM and take screenshots.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
