    Using YSMenu solves most problems i have encountered while using the R4, and I'm able to access all the cheats in the usercheat.dat bundle given from Gbatemp, and i since i have installed YSMenu, i have not received any compatibility issues.

    There are technically no files, when you open up the removable drive, the only thing you see in the window, is a file that doesn't have a name, nor characters, it's not even deletable.

    I have already so, as i have stated above.

    Now this is extra strange, my computer says that the removable drive's used space is 1.87 GB, that could possibly the files that were originally in there, first i thought it was just my computer that couldn't find the invisible data, so i tried it on my phone, i also installed DSOrganize, and a browser software for the DS, and it only shows the files i have placed after the event, i don't think i have any other method to fix this problem, except to attempt to format the SD Card, although the whole purpose of this is to recover the "Invisible files" I'm unable to find.

    What i mean by "Invisible" is that my computer says there is 1.87 GB full of files, although when i actually open up the removable drive, there's nothing there to see.

    My questions are the following: (if possible to answer)
    -Why did it rename the MicroSD Card to the default name? "Removable Drive (I:)
    -Why are all my data? "Invisible"
    -What triggered this problem?
    -Is there anyway to prevent this in the future?

    In the mean time, seeing that i have no more options to turn to into recovering the "Invisible Data" and i can't figure out how to turn the data visible, so i may have to resort into formatting the SD Card, losing all my work, and files that i was too stupid and lazy to back up, all those hours of my life wasted. (hehe sorry this is very heart breaking)

    It didn't rename the Micro SD to 'Removable Drive.It's because maybe it didn't properly inserted.That one will happen when you choose to remove the hardware.So you can remove it.Try re-inserting it back to your pc.

    I dunno if this helps but if you can "show hidden files", you probably will see them... But most likely it won't do anything... Hmmm...

    -_- It is properly inserted, if i can add, and delete files, then I'm pretty sure it's properly inserted.

    Yeah I'm pretty sure I've tried every possible method.(that i can think of)

    I think people can let this thread die already, i couldn't think of any other method to retrieve the lost, or invisible data, i even post a thread in Gbatemp, but Romulation had more responses, and assistance.

    So i just formatted my MicroSD Card, although the whole point was to recover the data, because there are a numerous amount of games I've nearly completed, and now they're gone. *sigh*
