    I was having trouble installing it but I did not know i had outdated sigpatches thanks so much I can now use tinfoil. Your the only youtuber who did it well. You got yourself a subscriber :D

    Thank you dude, I was following a lot of YT tutorials but none of them showed to install sigmapatches and to inject one more time. Works perfectly now.

    I was sceptical at first, but it works and you actually found a workaround my issue. I tried installing everything seperately as I would normally (via github), but Tinfoil wouldn't launch and my software was stuck at 16.1. Don't know what you did, but it worked. Thanks!

    Updated Switch to 18.0, Updated Atmosphere to 1.8, Updated to latest Sigpatches and Tinfoil doesn't work. Downloaded the latest Tinfoil self installer as well. It shows as v.15 on the Applet, but it gives me errors when installing. I have tried everything and nothing works.
