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.
  2. Start the EnvironmentLoader.
    • If you're autobooting into Tiramisu, this can be done by powering on your console and holding X.
  3. Highlight the entry called aroma using the D-Pad.
    • To make the console autoboot Aroma press Y.
  4. 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.
  5. 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).
