→‎System Format: Factory reset with a NNID
Line 119: Line 119:  
Most of the System Format is done with [[FS:InitializeCtrFileSystem]]. This command updates the high u64 of the keyY stored in [[Nand/private/movable.sed|movable.sed]]. Since this keyY was updated, the data stored on [[SD_Filesystem|SD]] card(sdmc/Nintendo 3DS/<ID0>/<ID1>) and the data under [[Flash_Filesystem|nand/data/<ID0>]] is rendered useless, since that data used the old keyY. Since that data is no longer usable, the system then deletes the two above SD/NAND directories.

When you first enter the System Format menu, it will check if a NNID is linked. If there's a linked-NNID, it will then display: "Are you ready to connect to the Internet to check whether data can be formatted"? Continuing will only result in connecting to wifi for doing the usual connection-test, ''nothing more''. Once that's done it will continue with the usual system-format messages.

Continuing will only result in connecting to wifi for checking in with Nintendo's servers, which may fail if the console is banned. Once that's done it will continue with the usual system-format messages; proceeding will result in the NNID cookie, potentially still present on NAND backups or multiboot scenarios, being invalidated until the next sign-in (at which point even old sessions will be valid again).
