Inject the Hekate payload using a compatible method.

In the Hekate menu, navigate to "More Configs" and select "TKMM" to boot into the TKMM-NX environment.

Updating:

TKMM should prompt you when it detects an update (if connected to wifi), when selecting "Yes" on the update prompt, the update will be downloaded and your Switch will reboot to the new version.

If you ever need to update manually, download the latest update tarball and place it under "tkmm/storage/.update/" on your micro SD card. The next time you boot to TKMM-NX, the update will be installed.
