| Error | Likely Cause | Solution |
|-------|--------------|----------|
| “Unable to start software. Return to HOME Menu.” | Missing or outdated sigpatches | Download latest sigpatches from a trusted source (e.g., GBAtemp). Apply via Hekate or Atmosphere reboot. |
| “Corrupted data has been detected.” | Conflict with a lower version (e.g., v1.9.0 residual files) | Use DBI to uninstall the update only (under “Titles” → select update → Delete). Then reinstall 1.10.1 cleanly. |
| “Update requires newer firmware.” | 1.10.1 expects Switch FW 18.0.0+ | Update your Switch firmware using Daybreak (offline) to 18.1.0. Emulator users: update product keys. |
| NSP not appearing in installer | File extension is .rar not .nsp | Extract fully. If still .nsp missing, the release might be split; use hjsplit or check for a .7z archive. |
| Base game not found | Base game region mismatched (US update ≠ EUR base) | Ensure base game title ID matches. Use a tool like NSC_Builder to change update region to fit your base. | Disney Speedstorm: How to Install Update v1
