I downloaded the zip, but I see no ''update'' file.... I still tried to downgrade and it says the update file is missing... what is wrong? thx for helping me out..

Sounds like you're on the guide? If you're on this step: https://plailect.github.io/Guide/9.2.0-downgrade

then you find the updates folder inside the zip file that starts with 9.2.0 and matches your console. For example if you have the EUR console and it's a N3DS the zip will be called 9.2.0-20E(Full)_n3DS.zip - see the section that says "The 9.2.0 downgrade pack zip file for your device and region:" YOU MUST get the correct archive for your console, so be careful and read carefully.

sysDowngrader is the tool that downgrades, it doesn't have the downgrade files (updates folder).

I downloaded the right zip, but it is only a file. I cannot open it so I do not see any file. Am I supposed to use this file? Or is it supposed to be a folder? Please have a look. I use the old 3ds from United States (Canada actually)

Okay so tell me if I got this right : I created a ''updates'' folder on the root of my SD card. Then I've transfer the 9.2.0-20U torrent in it. And then I downgrade. Right? So that's what I did but seems like I didn't downgrade yet. Thank you for you time again.

If you mean transferred the contents of the zip (from the torrent download) then yes. There should be a whole heap of files with long names the same length. There are about 120-140 from memory. They end in CIA. If you don't have those files, you need to open the torrent with a BitTorrent client.

Okay so I downloaded the client. I transfered the updates file. I did the downgrade, it rebooted ''after 10 seconds'' and now it stays on the black screen. When I reboot it it still shows me the black screen. Hm... Can't get onto Homebrew menu either.

Nevermind, I got it !! I deleted the file for US, but it wasnt on the emplacement it showed in the guide. Thank you for your patience guys!
