#### What you need
- A device capable of interacting with SD cards
- Softmodded Wii U console
- If you have not softmodded your Wii U yet, [please do so](https://wiiu.hacks.guide). You cannot proceed without.
- Softmodded Wii U console with Aroma custom firmware
- If you have not softmodded your Wii U yet, [please do so](https://wiiu.hacks.guide). You cannot proceed without.
- A Discord account
- The latest release of [Wii U Plugin Loader](https://github.com/Maschell/WiiUPluginLoader/releases)
- The latest release of [UTag plugin](https://github.com/RiiConnect24/UTag/releases)
- The latest release of [Flump's Coldboot Haxchi Mod](https://www.dropbox.com/sh/gxkf72jia1adpyg/AACPMfGU2AyWUZmhU2awjSsca/Haxchi-CBHC%20Flump%20Mod.zip?dl=1)
- This Coldboot Haxchi mod is used in Section IV. You do not need to download it if you can't use Coldboot Haxchi, or you do not want Wii U Plugin Loader loading on startup.
- The latest release of the [UTag plugin](https://github.com/RiiConnect24/UTag/releases)
Previously, UTag allowed using other custom firmware (often abbreviated as CFW), but the only supported custom firmware, and the only one you should be using, is Aroma.

#### Instructions
@ -36,43 +36,17 @@ Do not share your RiiTag key with anyone! If you do, people can abuse your tag.
##### Section II - Setting things up on the SD card
1. Extract the Wii U Plugin Loader `.zip` file to the root of your SD card.
- You should see a folder titled `wiiupluginloader` in `/wiiu/apps/` on your SD.
2. Place the `UTag.mod` file in the `/wiiu/plugins/` folder on your SD card.
3. Create a new file titled `utag.txt` on the root of your SD card, and open it with a text editor.
4. Paste the key you made note of earlier in Step 5 of [Section I - Getting Started](#section-i---getting-started) into this `utag.txt` file, and save it.
- We're all done with the SD card side of things.
5. Insert your SD card into your Wii U.
1. Extract the UTag file to `/wiiu/environments/aroma/plugins` on your SD card. If it doesn't exist, create it.
2. In `/wiiu/` on your SD card, create a file called `utag.txt` and paste your RiiTag key from the previous step into it.
##### Section III - Running the plugin
1. Using your preferred method (browser exploit, Haxchi, Homebrew Launcher application, etc.), launch the **Homebrew Launcher** on your Wii U console.
2. Navigate to, and launch the homebrew application titled `Wii U Plugin Loader`.
3. You should be greeted with a menu, including a toggle for `UTag`. Enable `UTag`, and then press + on the Wii U GamePad. You should now be kicked back to the Wii U Menu.
##### Section IV - Running on startup (optional)
We will now setup Wii U Plugin Loader to run on startup with your Wii U. **This only works if you are using or willing to use Coldboot Haxchi.** You will still have to turn on UTag and press + on the Wii U GamePad to be kicked into the Wii U Menu on startup.
You don't need to manually run the plugin - just run Aroma and it will automatically be loaded. We recommend setting up Aroma for coldbooting so the plugin gets loaded automatically when you boot the console.
