Easily manage your Switch games backups.

This app scans your local files, and provides insights, like missing update and DLC files.

Automatically renames and organize games and updates to folders with standard naming format.

Note: This app doesn't support scanning your Switch SD card, only your local game files on your computer.

Keys (optional)

Having a prod.keys file will allow you to ensure the files you have a correctly classified. The app will look for the "prod.keys" file in the app folder or under ${HOME}/.switch/ You can also specify a custom location in the settings.json (see below)

Note: Only the header_key, and the key_area_key_application_XX keys are required.

Settings

During the App first launch a "settings.json" file will be created, that allows for granular control over the Apps execution.

You can customize the folder/file re-naming, as well as turn on/off features.
