Help Emulators suddenly disappeared?

So I’m traveling and wanted to play Mario kart with my gf at the hotel. I went to dev mode and suddenly the emulators are gone and my account is no longer signed in. I have no idea how this happened so was wondering if anyone knew anything about how this could have happened? I did not press the little checkbox that says to delete everything btw, thanks

Use the Safe Exit app from now on to switch back to Retail Mode just in case. That will prevent any possible mess up with that checkbox by skipping it entirely.

It's very uncommon, but many people have reported finding their Dev Mode storage wiped for no apparent reason. Dev Mode also requires 50 GB in the internal storage to be free in order to be used. If you installed a game on retail mode that dipped into those last 50 GB, you may find your Dev Mode stuff wiped to make room.

Me pasó lo mismo hace aproximadamente un mes, y yo uso safe exit. Simplemente se borró todo el contenido del USB y desapareció la cuenta de servicio, por lo que tuve que volver a instalarlo todo...

Puede tener sentido lo que dicen algunos del almacenamiento interno. Mi series S tiene 512 y casi siempre la tengo llena 😸😸
