v2.0.1

This release fixes a bug that in some cases would install a theme ignoring the background image.
Only themes created with the [new web injector](https://exelix11.github.io/SwitchThemeInjector/v2/) are affected by this.

The theme Injector was not updated with this release, you can find latest version in the previous one

v2.0

*  Touch screen support
*  Now more themes are shown in the main screen
    *  As more info has to be loaded, depending on your sd card, loading times may be a bit longer, this shouldn't be an issue though

Description

NxThemesInstaller is a homebrew application for managing custom themes on the Nintendo Switch. It supports installing and removing the old szs and new nxtheme formats via a GUI.

Features

 Install the new nxtheme format
 Install the old szs themes
 Automatically detect proper name and firmware version for szs files
 Directly dump home menu nca, no more hacdiskmount !
 Suports all major cfws (atmosphere, reinx and sx os)

Instructions

Basic Installation Instructions

Create a folder called themes in the root of the sd and copy your themes in there, to install nxthemes you'll have to follow this [a href="https://github.com/exelix11/SwitchThemeInjector/blob/master/DumpingFiles.md"]quick guide[/a] first.

Troubleshooting:

Make sure to have layeredFS set up on your console or else themes won't show up.

Sx os doesn't require you to have the "sxos" folder on the root of the sd, but if you don't have it the installer won't detect sx os. So if you use sx os and don't have a folder called sxos on the sd, manually create it.
