Atmosphere: Detect if an installed title is actually corrupt or not / bypass corruption check.

[Serfrost]

Why would this feature be useful?

When Switching from other "CFW" (aka Repacks of Atmosphere,) often some titles will be reported to be corrupt or have corrupt save data. Horizon initiates a data check, and if it cannot find a solution it will say to redownload the installed title, even if the titles worked correctly with another CFW configuration (aka, patches or other.)

It would be nice to bypass this check and hopefully have it display a human-legible deduction of what the problem might be.

If not entirely bypassing the check, It would also be nice if the [ ! ] next to a "Problem Title" is omitted (if the user cancels the check themselves,) so users may attempt to launch the software again without Horizon telling them to scan the installed software, allowing them to attempt to run the software again. (currently it requires users to delete it from the Memory Management console in System Settings.)

This would hopefully result in less user troubleshooting requests around the board and mitigate confusion with new Switch CFW users. Additionally, it would significantly reduce the time required to test titles and installations; providing a human-legible error result would help with deciding what users should do in regards to getting the title to work correctly on the console.

Please don't seek support for warez here.

Even a "This NSP is corrupt: [Reason]" or, in reference to your reply, "Piracy is not supported." messages would have worked, really. But alright...?

Often enough poorly made NSPs of homebrew fail to boot, especially with users just learning.

... I can read. I'm allowed to defend my reasoning, but I'll leave it at that.

Hope to see some kind of change to error dialogues in the future.

happen.

Does it look like I'm still asking? Looks like you're still commenting just to start shit.

It was a request, I'm not demanding anything. I simply wanted to see if they had any plans to do so.

Question answered.

@Serfrost some titles will be reported to be corrupt or have corrupt save data.

The circumstances under which this occurs are only when one has installed unofficial content. Hence: please do not seek support for warez here.

This is not an issue that occurs for legitimate content.

I appreciate the further response, SciresM. I'll keep this in mind in the future, thank you.
