AutoRCM installation guide from SX OS payload​

This guide will teach you how to install AutoRCM, a software that allows that every time you turn on your Nintendo Switch enters RCM mode automatically.


Advantages:

• You will not need to use the jig every time you restart the console
• You can uninstall it whenever you want
• You can send payloads easily and quickly
• By not needing a jig every time you start the Switch, the pins of the rail will not wear out (it is possible that from using a jig so much the pins end up wearing out)

Disadvantages:

• The Switch does not load in RCM mode. Be careful to always have the console loaded when it is in RCM
• The Switch may stay on and you do not realize it because the screen is black and it uses up the battery without you realizing it
• If you turn off or restart the console you will need a PC to send a payload to boot either the OFW (Original Firmware) or a CFW (Custom Firmware)

Once you have read the advantages and disadvantages of installing AutoRCM, we proceed to install AutoRCM.
