{{#seo: |title=Switch Homebrew PC Tools (PC Utilities) - GameBrew |title_mode=append |image=NXMigratorProSwitch.png |image_alt=NX Migrator Pro }} A professional partition management tool for Nintendo Switch SD cards with dual-mode operation: Migration and Cleanup. NX Migrator Pro provides two powerful modes for managing your Nintendo Switch SD card partitions: * Migration Mode - Migrate partitions from a smaller SD card to a larger one with automatic FAT32 expansion. * Cleanup Mode - Remove unwanted partitions (Linux/Android/emuMMC) from a single SD card and reclaim space for FAT32. System requirements: * OS: Windows 10/11 (64-bit) * RAM: 512MB minimum * Permissions: Administrator privileges required * Disk Space: Minimal (application is ~10MB) Hardware requirements: * Source SD Card (your current smaller card) * Target SD Card (must be larger than source) * SD card reader(s) - can use one or two readers == Features == * '''Supported partition types: ** FAT32 (hos_data) - Main Nintendo Switch data partition ** Linux (L4T) - Single Linux partition for Lakka/Ubuntu ** Android - Both Dynamic (Android 10+) and Legacy (Android 7-9) ** emuMMC - Single or Dual emuMMC partitions * '''Migration Mode: ** Smart Scanning - Automatically detects partition layout ** Selective Migration - Choose which partitions to migrate ** Auto-Expand FAT32 - Automatically expand FAT32 to use free space ** Safe - Source disk is never modified (read-only access) ** Fast - Optimized sector-by-sector copying with 32MB chunks * '''Cleanup Mode: ** Single-Disk Operation - Works on one SD card (no target needed) ** Selective Removal - Choose which partitions to remove ** FAT32 Preservation - Backs up FAT32 data temporarily during cleanup ** Auto-Expand - Automatically expands FAT32 to reclaim freed space ** Safe Backup - Prompts for backup confirmation before proceeding * '''GUI: ** Modern dark-themed interface built with ttkbootstrap ** Visual partition layout display ** Real-time progress tracking with detailed status ** Pre-migration validation and warnings ** Detailed partition information and size calculations == Media == '''EASY SD CARD UPGRADE!
