A simple Nintendo Switch homebrew tool for easily toggling Atmosphere cheat settings, including auto-enable cheats and remembering cheat states.

With NXFixCheat, you can quickly enable or disable cheat options without editing config files manually.

Features

  • Toggle auto-enable cheats - Quickly enable or disable default cheat activation (dmnt_cheats_enabled_by_default) in system_settings.ini.
  • Toggle remember cheat state - Set whether Atmosphere should remember the last cheat toggle state (dmnt_always_save_cheat_toggles).
  • Automatic backup - Backs up your current config file before applying any changes.
  • Template restoration - If your config is missing, a template is automatically copied and used.
  • Simple menu navigation - Navigate using your controller’s D-Pad and buttons.
  • Reboot option - Optionally reboot to Homebrew Menu after applying changes.

Installation

Place the compiled .nro file in your sdmc:/switch/nxfixcheat/ folder.

Ensure system_settings_template.ini exists in sdmc:/switch/nxfixcheat/ for recovery if your config file is missing.

Launch the application via the Homebrew Menu.

User guide

Disclaimer

  • Use at your own risk.
  • Modifying system files can cause unexpected behavior.

How it works

  • If the file is missing, a template is copied from sdmc:/switch/nxfixcheat/system_settings_template.ini.
  • A backup of your current config is saved to sdmc:/atmosphere/config/system_settings_backup.ini.
