{% include toc title="Table of Contents" %}

### Required Reading

This will completely remove CFW from your device, including boot9strap and Luma3DS, for the purpose of restoring the device to stock.

This is never the solution to fix any issues you may be encountering with your CFW installation. A better idea would be to ask (in English) for help at [Nintendo Homebrew on Discord](https://discord.gg/MWxPgEp).
{: .notice--danger}

Any unsigned (illegitimate) games will be rendered unusable and will be removed during this process. Use a [save manager](https://github.com/FlagBrew/Checkpoint/releases/latest) to back up any saves for these unsigned (illegitimate) games you care about.

If you have modified critical system software (such as installing a custom HOME Menu CIA, unbanning your console, region changing, etc.), uninstalling CFW WILL BRICK your device! Ensure that you follow all sections of this page.
{: .notice--danger}

These instructions will only work on devices with a Luma3DS version of 8.0 or higher. If you have an older version of Luma, you must upgrade your setup before following these instructions. Follow [this page](checking-for-cfw) to find your upgrade instructions.
{: .notice--warning}

Observera att om du har någon annan payload än `GodMode9.firm` i mappen `/luma/payloads/` på ditt SD-kort, så kommer en "chainloader menu" visas om du håller inne (Start) under uppstart, där du måste använda D-Pad:en och knappen (A) för att välja "GodMode9" för dessa instruktioner. 

### What You Need
