## The User Directory ## The User Directory
yuzu's user directory is where the emulator persists the emulated 3DS NAND, save data, extra data, and a host of other files necessary for yuzu to run properly.

### Dumping files from a 3DS ### Dumping files from a Switch
Included in this guide are instructions on how to dump various files from a 3DS console to put into the yuzu user directory. These files are optional in terms of yuzu's ability to run, but depending on certain circumstances some may be required in order to run a particular game or get past a certain point in the game. In general, dumping files from a 3DS will require an SD card reader or some way to use wireless file transfer from a 3DS to a computer and that the 3DS being dumped from has [Homebrew Launcher](http://smealum.github.io/3ds/) access. More advanced users will also have [custom firmware](https://3ds.guide/) and [Decrypt9WIP](https://github.com/d0k3/Decrypt9WIP) installed to their 3DS.

This directory is the equivalent of the SD card inserted into a physical 3DS, which stores game save and extra data and any titles installed to the SD card in encrypted format, though yuzu does not currently emulate installing titles to SD and instead runs decrypted .3ds, .app, and .cxi files directly from the computer's filesystem. Inside the `sdmc` folder, just like on a real 3DS console, is a `Nintendo 3DS` directory, which contains two more directories, `Private` and `00000000000000000000000000000000`.

Users should redump their shared font since the open source font replacement may not always look accurate.
