SaveData.dat invalid filesize, with error 0xfffffffe.

[Kygdom]

When i try to install Menuhax, just after the line "Loading SaveData.dat" i have the following message : "The SaveData.dat filesize is invalid. This may mean you're running menuhax_manager on an unsupported system version", with the error code being "0xfffffffe".

My system-version is Old3DS 11.0.0-33 EUR. I took the most recent homebrew starter kit and unziped menuhax 3.0. I have no idea what i could have done wrong.

Btw, browserhax works very well.

@Unknownstarz93 oh my gosh thanks it worked thanks dude the only thing is i wish i did that earlier cause i booted with browser hacks like 50 times

@yellows8 im having a problem related to this, im running 11.0-33u on my 3ds, but it says "The SaveData.dat filesize is invalid. This may mean your running menuhax_manager on an unsupported system-version Install failed: 0xfffffffe.

you dont have to lose your save you could just replace the files after you installed the homebrew

[RagingIceSprite]

Trying to homebrew my 3ds and I am having the same issue. However, when I rename the extdata folder, my monster hunter generations save data gets deleted off of the SD card. Is there any way that I can replace the contents of the extdata folder so I can keep my save data after I install menuhax?

[yellows8]

You're not supposed to rename the 'extdata' directory, only the one for Home Menu mentioned above.

[See Edit2 at bottom]

I'm having this issue as well. Deleting the directories and making sure the theme data is recreated by the 3DS's theme manager, isn't fixing it for me.

Hardware: Old 3DS Ver: 11.0.0-33 USA Method of accessing homebrew: BrowserHax

Same error log as everyone else is giving.

edit: added the method of getting to the homebrew incase that is relevant.

Edit2: Seems I was going at the wrong folder. Thought it was a similar problem I had last year, so I was deleting/renaming that folder instead of the correct one.

[Zerofoxgiven]

I deleted my full extdata folder on accident... what will happen now??? The homebrew launcher CIA doesn't work anymore, it crashes at the yellow screen :( EDIT: Nevermind, menuhax now fully installed, thanks guys!

[Zerofoxgiven]

Menuhax gives me a black screen after I installed it though. Had to remove the SD card and change the theme.

[yellows8]

@Zerofoxgiven "The homebrew launcher CIA " Why are you using menuhax then?

"change the theme." This issue is only for sdiconhax.....

[Kerasu]

For those asking what to rename the extdata file to, you can name it anything you want. I literally just renamed mine "rename" and it installed fine after that.

[Kerasu]

@yellows8 Ok so I got this to work, but now when I go to my Mii Plaza all the games I've played had the data erased? How do I fix this? I kept a backup and everything on my computer.

[Kerasu]

Derp nevermind I fixed it. It had to do with the files "0000008f" and "000002cd". I had to keep the new ones made in the new extdata file for those and then transfer all my stuff from my original extdata file to the new one without replacing those 2.

[yellows8]

I specifically said to only touch the Home Menu extdata.....

[Kerasu]

Ahh whoops. Yeah I just saw that. I have a weird way of figuring things out I guess.. Sorry about that.

[DailyPopcorn]

Guys please help me i can't understand those steps. Please helpo me step by step in installing menuhax v3.1 please. btw i'm using New3DS 11.0.0 33 US if this will help

[pzppo]

Okay I know this is an old thread but im still getting the same error ( 0xfffffffe ) when I go to install it and I am on system version 11.2.0-35 U and I am using menuhax version 3.1 I tried deleting the extdata file but I cant even go to install on menuhax and the same thing happens to me if I rename the extdata if anyone sees this i would love some help :)

[yellows8]

This is completely unrelated, read the actual displayed message & README ......

[Rocket411]

ok, having the same error code and issue as all these guys, do I rename the exdata file itself, or do I just rename the file when you open it??

[Rocket411]

also, my error code is:

also, do I need luma cwf if I already have homebrew?

[loadstarnes]

I'm too tired to read the whole thing but you should rename the extdata FOLDER (aka Directory). All this is doing is tricking the DS into thinking it doesn't have the extdata setup yet, so it creates it again...

That has absolutely nothing to do with this issue.
