# Aroma {docsify-ignore-all}
## Finalizing Setup
Now that Aroma is on your SD Card, we need to set up some final things.
### Booting into Aroma
1. Take the SD Card out of your computer and plug it into your Wii U console.
1. Start the EnvironmentLoader.
- If you're autobooting into Tiramisu, this can be done by powering on your console and holding `X`.
1. Highlight the entry called `aroma` using the D-Pad.
- To make the console autoboot Aroma press `Y`.
1. Launch Aroma by pressing `A`.
- If you get a red warning screen telling you that updates aren't blocked properly, you might want to block updates by following [this guide](../block-updates).
1. On the Boot Selector, the `Wii U Menu` should already be selected, press Y to set this to your default autobooting option, then press A to launch into the Wii U Menu.
- To open the Boot Selector in the future, you have hold START (+) while launching Aroma.
You are now running Aroma. Any apps you have on your SD Card will show up on the Wii U menu.
?> **Aroma does not support the Homebrew Launcher**
Launch apps from the Wii U menu using the `homebrew_on_menu` plugin.
You can now open the Plugin Configuration Menu using `L + Down + SELECT (-)` on the GamePad or Pro Controller (or `B + Down + Minus (-)` for WiiMotes).
### Installing apps, modules, and plugins
Base-Aroma already comes with several useful plugins and modules.
You can also install additional Aroma compatible apps, modules and plugins. Below is a list with various recommendations.
| Name | Description | Installation Instructions |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

1. Take the SD Card out of your computer and plug it into your Wii U console.
1. Start the EnvironmentLoader.
- If you're autobooting into it, this can be done by powering on your console and holding `X`.

# Aroma {docsify-ignore-all}
Aroma is a work-in-progress environment and a possible successor for Tiramisu.
!> **Aroma is currently in beta and still experimental!**
Expect potential issues and make sure to report them, if you encounter any.
If you still want to proceed, make sure to fully read this page.
?> This guide will not remove Tiramisu. After following this guide you can still choose to boot into Tiramisu.
### What is Aroma?
Aroma is an environment like Tiramisu, which can be booted through the Environment Loader.
Aroma, just like Tiramisu, uses the same Mocha version, support for setup modules, and comes with the Autoboot Module, which includes the boot selector and Quick Start support.
Aroma comes with several additional features, including a plugin system and a new way of launching homebrews.
### What can I do with Aroma?
For a detailed overview check out [this blogpost](https://maschell.github.io/homebrew/2022/09/05/aroma.html). A quick summary is given below.
#### Modules
Aroma supports modules, which unlike setup modules, always run in the background.
This allows further extending the functionality of the console.
#### Plugins
Plugins, similarly to modules, are also running in the background.
They can enhance the experience of the console by changing and providing additional features.
Plugins can be configured using a configuration menu, which can be opened using a button combination.
#### Wii U Homebrew Bundles
Wii U Homebrew Bundles (WUHB) are a new way of launching homebrew.
These `.wuhb` files contain the main executable and can directly include icon and banner images and additional content.
With the `homebrew_on_menu` plugin, WUHB files can be directly launched from the Wii U menu, just like official channels.
### What are the limitations?
Due to technical limitations, a lot of old homebrew applications will no longer work with Aroma.
This includes all `.elf` homebrews, but also some `.rpx` homebrews, which don't implement necessary functionality properly.
These homebrews need to be updated with support for Aroma. To run old homebrews you need to boot the Tiramisu environment.
Launching homebrews through the now outdated Homebrew Launcher is no longer possible with Aroma.
Besides the limitations mentioned above, note that Aroma is still a beta release. Not everything has been tested yet, and additional issues might be discovered.
### Getting started
Before continuing to the next page, make sure to install the PayloadLoader.
This can be done by following the [Tiramisu guide](../tiramisu/sd-preparation).

# Aroma {docsify-ignore-all}
## SD Preparation
We will now place the required Aroma files on the SD Card.
?> **Notice** Your SD Card will need to be formatted as FAT32. If your SD Card is not formatted to FAT32, use [GUIFormat](http://ridgecrop.co.uk/index.htm?guiformat.htm) with 32k (32768) allocation unit size to format it.
**Do not** label the SD Card as `wiiu` or it will cause issues with homebrew.
### What You Need
- The latest files from the [Aroma download page](https://aroma.foryour.cafe).
1. Scroll down to the **Download** section.
1. Read through the steps and click on the checkboxes.
1. Click on `Download Payloads` and `Download Base Aroma`.
### Instructions
1. Insert your Wii U's SD Card into your PC.
1. **Extract** and copy the `wiiu` folder of the two newly downloaded *`.zip`* files to the root of your SD Card.

Launch apps from the Wii U menu using the `homebrew_on_menu` plugin.
You can now open the Plugin Configuration Menu using `L + Down + SELECT (-)` on the GamePad or Pro Controller (or `B + Down + Minus (-)` for WiiMotes).
### Installing apps, modules, and plugins
Base-Aroma already comes with several useful plugins and modules.
You can also install additional Aroma compatible apps, modules and plugins. Below is a list with various recommendations.

# Aroma {docsify-ignore-all}
Aroma is a work-in-progress environment and a possible successor for Tiramisu.
!> **Aroma is currently in beta and still experimental!**
Expect potential issues and make sure to report them, if you encounter any.
If you still want to proceed, make sure to fully read this page.
?> This guide will not remove Tiramisu. After following this guide you can still choose to boot into Tiramisu.
### What is Aroma?
Aroma is an environment like Tiramisu, which can be booted through the Environment Loader.
Aroma, just like Tiramisu, uses the same Mocha version, support for setup modules, and comes with the Autoboot Module, which includes the boot selector and Quick Start support.
Aroma comes with several additional features, including a plugin system and a new way of launching homebrews.
### What can I do with Aroma?
For a detailed overview check out [this blogpost](https://maschell.github.io/homebrew/2022/09/05/aroma.html). A quick summary is given below.
#### Modules
Aroma supports modules, which unlike setup modules, always run in the background.
This allows further extending the functionality of the console.
#### Plugins
Plugins, similarly to modules, are also running in the background.
They can enhance the experience of the console by changing and providing additional features.
Plugins can be configured using a configuration menu, which can be opened using a button combination.
#### Wii U Homebrew Bundles
Wii U Homebrew Bundles (WUHB) are a new way of launching homebrew.
These `.wuhb` files contain the main executable and can directly include icon and banner images and additional content.
With the `homebrew_on_menu` plugin, WUHB files can be directly launched from the Wii U menu, just like official channels.
### What are the limitations?
Due to technical limitations, a lot of old homebrew applications will no longer work with Aroma.
This includes all `.elf` homebrews, but also some `.rpx` homebrews, which don't implement necessary functionality properly.
These homebrews need to be updated with support for Aroma. To run old homebrews you need to boot the Tiramisu environment.
Launching homebrews through the now outdated Homebrew Launcher is no longer possible with Aroma.
Besides the limitations mentioned above, note that Aroma is still a beta release. Not everything has been tested yet, and additional issues might be discovered.
### Getting started
Before continuing to the next page, make sure to install the PayloadLoader.
This can be done by following the [Tiramisu guide](../tiramisu/sd-preparation).

For a detailed overview check out [this blogpost](https://maschell.github.io/homebrew/2022/09/05/aroma.html). A quick summary is given below.
#### Modules
Aroma supports modules, which unlike setup modules, always run in the background.
This allows further extending the functionality of the console.
#### Plugins
Plugins, similarly to modules, are also running in the background.
They can enhance the experience of the console by changing and providing additional features.
Plugins can be configured using a configuration menu, which can be opened using a button combination.
#### Wii U Homebrew Bundles
Wii U Homebrew Bundles (WUHB) are a new way of launching homebrew.
These `.wuhb` files contain the main executable and can directly include icon and banner images and additional content.
With the `homebrew_on_menu` plugin, WUHB files can be directly launched from the Wii U menu, just like official channels.
### What are the limitations?
Due to technical limitations, a lot of old homebrew applications will no longer work with Aroma.
This includes all `.elf` homebrews, but also some `.rpx` homebrews, which don't implement necessary functionality properly.
These homebrews need to be updated with support for Aroma. To run old homebrews you need to boot the Tiramisu environment.
Launching homebrews through the now outdated Homebrew Launcher is no longer possible with Aroma.
Besides the limitations mentioned above, note that Aroma is still a beta release. Not everything has been tested yet, and additional issues might be discovered.
### Getting started
Before continuing to the next page, make sure to install the PayloadLoader.
This can be done by following the [Tiramisu guide](../tiramisu/sd-preparation).

# Aroma {docsify-ignore-all}
Aroma is a work-in-progress environment and a possible successor for Tiramisu.
!> **Aroma is currently in beta and still experimental!**
Expect potential issues and make sure to report them, if you encounter any.
If you still want to proceed, make sure to fully read this page.
?> This guide will not remove Tiramisu. After following this guide you can still choose to boot into Tiramisu.
### What is Aroma?
Aroma is an environment like Tiramisu, which can be booted through the Environment Loader.
Aroma, just like Tiramisu, uses the same Mocha version, support for setup modules, and comes with the Autoboot Module, which includes the boot selector and Quick Start support.
Aroma comes with several additional features, including a plugin system and a new way of launching homebrews.
### What can I do with Aroma?
For a detailed overview check out [this blogpost](https://maschell.github.io/homebrew/2022/09/05/aroma.html). A quick summary is given below.
#### Modules
Aroma supports modules, which unlike setup modules, always run in the background.
This allows further extending the functionality of the console.
#### Plugins
Plugins, similarly to modules, are also running in the background.
They can enhance the experience of the console by changing and providing additional features.
Plugins can be configured using a configuration menu, which can be opened using a button combination.
#### Wii U Homebrew Bundles
Wii U Homebrew Bundles (WUHB) are a new way of launching homebrew.
These `.wuhb` files contain the main executable and can directly include icon and banner images and additional content.
With the `homebrew_on_menu` plugin, WUHB files can be directly launched from the Wii U menu, just like official channels.
### What are the limitations?
Due to technical limitations, a lot of old homebrew applications will no longer work with Aroma.
This includes all `.elf` homebrews, but also some `.rpx` homebrews, which don't implement necessary functionality properly.
These homebrews need to be updated with support for Aroma. To run old homebrews you need to boot the Tiramisu environment.
Launching homebrews through the now outdated Homebrew Launcher is no longer possible with Aroma.
Besides the limitations mentioned above, note that Aroma is still a beta release. Not everything has been tested yet, and additional issues might be discovered.

This can be done by following the [Tiramisu guide](../tiramisu/sd-preparation).

- To open the Boot Selector in the future, you have hold START (+) while launching Aroma.
You are now running Aroma. Any apps you have on your SD Card will show up on the Wii U menu.
?> **Aroma does not support the Homebrew Launcher**
Launch apps from the Wii U menu using the `homebrew_on_menu` plugin.
You can now open the Plugin Configuration Menu using `L + Down + SELECT (-)` on the GamePad or Pro Controller (or `B + Down + Minus (-)` for WiiMotes).
### Installing apps, modules, and plugins
Base-Aroma already comes with several useful plugins and modules.
You can also install additional Aroma compatible apps, modules and plugins. Below is a list with various recommendations.

# Aroma {docsify-ignore-all}
Aroma is a work-in-progress environment and a possible successor for Tiramisu.
!> **Aroma is currently in beta and still experimental!**
Expect potential issues and make sure to report them, if you encounter any.
If you still want to proceed, make sure to fully read this page.
?> This guide will not remove Tiramisu. After following this guide you can still choose to boot into Tiramisu.
### What is Aroma?
Aroma is an environment like Tiramisu, which can be booted through the Environment Loader.
Aroma, just like Tiramisu, uses the same Mocha version, support for setup modules, and comes with the Autoboot Module, which includes the boot selector and Quick Start support.
Aroma comes with several additional features, including a plugin system and a new way of launching homebrews.
### What can I do with Aroma?
For a detailed overview check out [this blogpost](https://maschell.github.io/homebrew/2022/09/05/aroma.html). A quick summary is given below.
#### Modules
Aroma supports modules, which unlike setup modules, always run in the background.
This allows further extending the functionality of the console.
#### Plugins
Plugins, similarly to modules, are also running in the background.
They can enhance the experience of the console by changing and providing additional features.
Plugins can be configured using a configuration menu, which can be opened using a button combination.
#### Wii U Homebrew Bundles
Wii U Homebrew Bundles (WUHB) are a new way of launching homebrew.
These `.wuhb` files contain the main executable and can directly include icon and banner images and additional content.
With the `homebrew_on_menu` plugin, WUHB files can be directly launched from the Wii U menu, just like official channels.
### What are the limitations?
Due to technical limitations, a lot of old homebrew applications will no longer work with Aroma.
This includes all `.elf` homebrews, but also some `.rpx` homebrews, which don't implement necessary functionality properly.
These homebrews need to be updated with support for Aroma. To run old homebrews you need to boot the Tiramisu environment.
Launching homebrews through the now outdated Homebrew Launcher is no longer possible with Aroma.
Besides the limitations mentioned above, note that Aroma is still a beta release. Not everything has been tested yet, and additional issues might be discovered.
### Getting started
Before continuing to the next page, make sure to install the PayloadLoader.
This can be done by following the [Tiramisu guide](../tiramisu/sd-preparation).

You can now open the Plugin Configuration Menu using `L + Down + SELECT (-)` on the GamePad or Pro Controller (or `B + Down + Minus (-)` for WiiMotes).
### Installing apps, modules, and plugins
Base-Aroma already comes with several useful plugins and modules.
You can also install additional Aroma compatible apps, modules and plugins. Below is a list with various recommendations.
| Name | Description | Installation Instructions |

# Aroma {docsify-ignore-all}
Aroma is a work-in-progress environment and a possible successor for Tiramisu.
!> **Aroma is currently in beta and still experimental!**
Expect potential issues and make sure to report them, if you encounter any.
If you still want to proceed, make sure to fully read this page.
?> This guide will not remove Tiramisu. After following this guide you can still choose to boot into Tiramisu.
### What is Aroma?
Aroma is an environment like Tiramisu, which can be booted through the Environment Loader.
Aroma, just like Tiramisu, uses the same Mocha version, support for setup modules, and comes with the Autoboot Module, which includes the boot selector and Quick Start support.
Aroma comes with several additional features, including a plugin system and a new way of launching homebrews.
### What can I do with Aroma?
For a detailed overview check out [this blogpost](https://maschell.github.io/homebrew/2022/09/05/aroma.html). A quick summary is given below.
#### Modules
Aroma supports modules, which unlike setup modules, always run in the background.
This allows further extending the functionality of the console.
#### Plugins
Plugins, similarly to modules, are also running in the background.
They can enhance the experience of the console by changing and providing additional features.
Plugins can be configured using a configuration menu, which can be opened using a button combination.
#### Wii U Homebrew Bundles
Wii U Homebrew Bundles (WUHB) are a new way of launching homebrew.
These `.wuhb` files contain the main executable and can directly include icon and banner images and additional content.
With the `homebrew_on_menu` plugin, WUHB files can be directly launched from the Wii U menu, just like official channels.
### What are the limitations?
Due to technical limitations, a lot of old homebrew applications will no longer work with Aroma.
This includes all `.elf` homebrews, but also some `.rpx` homebrews, which don't implement necessary functionality properly.
These homebrews need to be updated with support for Aroma. To run old homebrews you need to boot the Tiramisu environment.
Launching homebrews through the now outdated Homebrew Launcher is no longer possible with Aroma.
Besides the limitations mentioned above, note that Aroma is still a beta release. Not everything has been tested yet, and additional issues might be discovered.
### Getting started
Before continuing to the next page, make sure to install the PayloadLoader.
This can be done by following the [Tiramisu guide](../tiramisu/sd-preparation).

# Aroma {docsify-ignore-all}
Aroma is a work-in-progress environment and a possible successor for Tiramisu.
!> **Aroma is currently in beta and still experimental!**
Expect potential issues and make sure to report them, if you encounter any.
If you still want to proceed, make sure to fully read this page.
?> This guide will not remove Tiramisu. After following this guide you can still choose to boot into Tiramisu.
### What is Aroma?
Aroma is an environment like Tiramisu, which can be booted through the Environment Loader.
Aroma, just like Tiramisu, uses the same Mocha version, support for setup modules, and comes with the Autoboot Module, which includes the boot selector and Quick Start support.
Aroma comes with several additional features, including a plugin system and a new way of launching homebrews.
### What can I do with Aroma?
For a detailed overview check out [this blogpost](https://maschell.github.io/homebrew/2022/09/05/aroma.html). A quick summary is given below.
#### Modules
Aroma supports modules, which unlike setup modules, always run in the background.
This allows further extending the functionality of the console.
#### Plugins
Plugins, similarly to modules, are also running in the background.
They can enhance the experience of the console by changing and providing additional features.
Plugins can be configured using a configuration menu, which can be opened using a button combination.
#### Wii U Homebrew Bundles
Wii U Homebrew Bundles (WUHB) are a new way of launching homebrew.
These `.wuhb` files contain the main executable and can directly include icon and banner images and additional content.
With the `homebrew_on_menu` plugin, WUHB files can be directly launched from the Wii U menu, just like official channels.
### What are the limitations?
Due to technical limitations, a lot of old homebrew applications will no longer work with Aroma.
This includes all `.elf` homebrews, but also some `.rpx` homebrews, which don't implement necessary functionality properly.
These homebrews need to be updated with support for Aroma. To run old homebrews you need to boot the Tiramisu environment.
Launching homebrews through the now outdated Homebrew Launcher is no longer possible with Aroma.
Besides the limitations mentioned above, note that Aroma is still a beta release. Not everything has been tested yet, and additional issues might be discovered.
### Getting started
Before continuing to the next page, make sure to install the PayloadLoader.
This can be done by following the [Tiramisu guide](../tiramisu/sd-preparation).

You can now open the Plugin Configuration Menu using `L + Down + SELECT (-)` on the GamePad or Pro Controller (or `B + Down + Minus (-)` for WiiMotes).
### Installing apps, modules, and plugins
Base-Aroma already comes with several useful plugins and modules.
You can also install additional Aroma compatible apps, modules and plugins. Below is a list with various recommendations.
| Name | Description | Installation Instructions |

# Aroma {docsify-ignore-all}
Aroma is a work-in-progress environment and a possible successor for Tiramisu.
!> **Aroma is currently in beta and still experimental!**
Expect potential issues and make sure to report them, if you encounter any.
If you still want to proceed, make sure to fully read this page.
?> This guide will not remove Tiramisu. After following this guide you can still choose to boot into Tiramisu.
### What is Aroma?
Aroma is an environment like Tiramisu, which can be booted through the Environment Loader.
Aroma, just like Tiramisu, uses the same Mocha version, support for setup modules, and comes with the Autoboot Module, which includes the boot selector and Quick Start support.
Aroma comes with several additional features, including a plugin system and a new way of launching homebrews.
### What can I do with Aroma?
For a detailed overview check out [this blogpost](https://maschell.github.io/homebrew/2022/09/05/aroma.html). A quick summary is given below.
#### Modules
Aroma supports modules, which unlike setup modules, always run in the background.
This allows further extending the functionality of the console.
#### Plugins
Plugins, similarly to modules, are also running in the background.
They can enhance the experience of the console by changing and providing additional features.
Plugins can be configured using a configuration menu, which can be opened using a button combination.
#### Wii U Homebrew Bundles
Wii U Homebrew Bundles (WUHB) are a new way of launching homebrew.
These `.wuhb` files contain the main executable and can directly include icon and banner images and additional content.
With the `homebrew_on_menu` plugin, WUHB files can be directly launched from the Wii U menu, just like official channels.
### What are the limitations?
Due to technical limitations, a lot of old homebrew applications will no longer work with Aroma.
This includes all `.elf` homebrews, but also some `.rpx` homebrews, which don't implement necessary functionality properly.
These homebrews need to be updated with support for Aroma. To run old homebrews you need to boot the Tiramisu environment.
Launching homebrews through the now outdated Homebrew Launcher is no longer possible with Aroma.
Besides the limitations mentioned above, note that Aroma is still a beta release. Not everything has been tested yet, and additional issues might be discovered.
### Getting started
Before continuing to the next page, make sure to install the PayloadLoader.
This can be done by following the [Tiramisu guide](../tiramisu/sd-preparation).

Aroma comes with several additional features, including a plugin system and a new way of launching homebrews.
### What can I do with Aroma?
For a detailed overview check out [this blogpost](https://maschell.github.io/homebrew/2022/09/05/aroma.html). A quick summary is given below.
#### Modules
Aroma supports modules, which unlike setup modules, always run in the background.
This allows further extending the functionality of the console.
#### Plugins
Plugins, similarly to modules, are also running in the background.
They can enhance the experience of the console by changing and providing additional features.
Plugins can be configured using a configuration menu, which can be opened using a button combination.
#### Wii U Homebrew Bundles
Wii U Homebrew Bundles (WUHB) are a new way of launching homebrew.
These `.wuhb` files contain the main executable and can directly include icon and banner images and additional content.
With the `homebrew_on_menu` plugin, WUHB files can be directly launched from the Wii U menu, just like official channels.
### What are the limitations?
Due to technical limitations, a lot of old homebrew applications will no longer work with Aroma.
This includes all `.elf` homebrews, but also some `.rpx` homebrews, which don't implement necessary functionality properly.
These homebrews need to be updated with support for Aroma. To run old homebrews you need to boot the Tiramisu environment.
Launching homebrews through the now outdated Homebrew Launcher is no longer possible with Aroma.
Besides the limitations mentioned above, note that Aroma is still a beta release. Not everything has been tested yet, and additional issues might be discovered.
### Getting started
Before continuing to the next page, make sure to install the PayloadLoader.
This can be done by following the [Tiramisu guide](../tiramisu/sd-preparation).

All currently known Wii U exploits can, unlike e.g. the Nintendo Switch RCM exploit, be patched by a system update. Although the Wii U is no longer officially supported, Nintendo may still release updates for it.
