WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE ELF: c8804464

[KatsuLovelet]

This is my second time installing GYTB, after it got corrupted through an sd card failing(i believe..) At this point the Decorate with Badges button was still around as if the app was still on my 3ds, but when i clicked on it, it obviously said "This feature cannot be used, because you don't have any badges yet." Here's where my problem comes in. I decide to reinstall gytb and I get this screen:

Creating ExtSaveData...
CreateExtSaveData failed! c8804464
NNID found: 6AD609DE
Checking for preexisting badge arcade badges to dump...
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE ELF. c8804464

Press any button to exit

so.. what is wrong with the elf? Do I need to delete other files that I cant get rid of just by deleting GYTB from the system settings?

I had the same issue for months and I think I just figured out the solution. Just open the Nintendo Badge Arcade and it'll say your badges are corrupted and fix your badges. It should be good to go after that but you may have to delete everything related to GYTB and reinstall it to get it to work (that's what I did) and you'll probably have to reinstall your badges. Hopefully it works for you.

Hey thanks for your help. Unfortunately when I installed badge arcade and opened it up it just said it was unable to read the SD card and told me to go to the home menu. Oof.

Delete the Home Menu's exdata and let it recreate it, then open Badge Arcade and let it create and sync the badge exdata, and then finally, everything SHOULD be happy
