Incognito_RCM v0.0.2 Released

jimzrt has released Incognito_RCM, which is a stand alone payload that will allow you to backup, erase and/or restore your Nintendo Switch's PRODINFO thus allowing for another layer of security when using your console online. Wiping your PRODINFO will hide certain aspects of your Switch's unique identification that Nintendo could use to ban your console from their online services with. You should still not attempt to connect to their services using CFW, but if you accidentally do this should provide some level of security.

Firmware 9.0.0 Warning

Due to changes in the way firmware 9.0.0 handles user input homebrew will have to be recompiled to function correctly using this firmware. Read the changelog to make sure the homebrew you're using has been updated to work on 9.0.0 if you're using firmware 9.0.0 or newer.

Description

Incognito_RCM is a stand alone payload that will allow you to backup, erase and/or restore your Nintendo Switch's PRODINFO thus allowing for another layer of security when using your console online. Wiping your PRODINFO will hide certain aspects of your Switch's unique identification that Nintendo could use to ban your console from their online services with. You should still not attempt to connect to their services using CFW, but if you accidentally do this should provide some level of security.

Instructions

# Usage

*   Launch Incoginito_RCM.bin using your favorite payload injector
*   Use menu to make a backup! (Will be written to `sd:/prodinfo_sysnand.bin` and `sd:/prodinfo_emunand.bin` respectively)
*   Choose either Incognito (sysNAND) or Incognito (emuMMC) to wipe personal information
*   If you ever want to revert, choose restore menu points

Keep in mind that backups will be overwritten, so don't backup after applying Incognito!

# Known Issues

*   Chainloading from SX will hang immediately due to quirks in their hwinit code, please launch payload directly

# Disclaimers

*   This application does not remove all personal information from your Switch, and should not be treated as a true preventative measure against getting banned.

*   ALWAYS have a NAND backup. I am not responsible for any bricks or bans. Use at your own risk, as this is an experimental program.

*   This application backs up your PRODINFO to the SD card. You should keep this backup in a more secure location, and not leave it on the SD card where it could be subject to corruption or be read by malicious applications.
