Which (Windows, Linux, Mac) you are currently using. Or as a command attempt: Let’s solve each one
mkdir -p ~/.switch cp /path/to/dumped/prod.keys ~/.switch/prod.keys
hactool --keyset=/full/path/to/prod.keys file.nca hactool prodkeys does not exist top
hactool --prodkeys prod.keys # but prod.keys not found in the top directory
By explicitly declaring the location of your keys using -k , hactool will completely ignore its internal default directory checks, bypassing the prodkeys does not exist error entirely. Troubleshooting Common Issues
A valid prod.keys file is a plain text file usually containing dozens of lines of hexadecimal strings. If it is 0 KB, the dump failed.
