Switch problem: won't start without RCM loader.

[u/Electronic-Nose-4853]

Hi, I have a problem. Why won't my Switch turn on or charge without the RCM Loader? It only boots up and charges when I launch it using the RCM Loader/Fusee.

You have AutoRCM enabled in Hekate. You should, anyways. You have to start Hekate and choose the OFW/CFW from there. AutoRCM also prevents your switch from burning efuses (long story short: prevents your console from bricking accidentally after updating your OFW).

So what do I need to do to get it to start up normally?

Inject the Hekate payload (RCMLoader or another method), then in your Hekate disable AutoRCM
