### CleanRip

#### What you need

- An SD card or USB drive with at least 4.7 GB of free space (8.5 GB if dumping a dual layer disc).
- [CleanRip](https://oscwii.org/library/app/cleanrip)

#### Instructions

##### Section I - Downloading/Installing

1. Extract CleanRip and put it in the `apps` folder on your SD card or USB drive.
1. Insert your SD card into your Wii, and launch CleanRip from the Homebrew Channel.

##### Section II - Ripping

1. Select your device that you will be dumping the game to - your USB drive or SD card. ![Device type](/images/CleanRip/2.png)
1. On this screen, it asks you if you want to download a file with game checksums so you can verify the dump created is a 1:1 copy of the disc. It's your choice whether to say `Yes` or `No` to download this file. ![DAT](/images/CleanRip/3.png)
1. Now insert the game you want to dump. ![DVD](/images/CleanRip/4.png) ![Initialising Disc](/images/CleanRip/5.png)
1. Set it as shown on the screen below.
If you are dumping one of the 13 games on [this list](https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=Category:Dual_Layer_Disc_games), set `Dual Layer` to `Yes`.

1. בחר/י את הדיסק שברצונך לחלץ ולהעתיק (האפשרויות הם: `GameCube Disc`, `Wii Single-Layer Disc`, `Wii Dual-Layer Disc`) ולחצ/י על "A" ![3](/images/DumpDiscs_LAN/3.png)
1. כעת, יש להכניס את המשחק לקונסולת ה Wii. (If it's already in your Wii, eject it and put it back.) ![InsertTheDisc](/images/DumpDiscs_LAN/insertthedisc.jpg) ![4](/images/DumpDiscs_LAN/4.png)

## Joining split files

If you dumped the disc on a FAT32 formatted, device, you should've got at least 2 files that end with `.partX.iso`. They need to be joined up.
{: .notice--info}

## Windows

1. Copy all the files that share the same name and end with `.partX.iso` into an empty folder on your computer.
1. Open the folder in File Explorer.
1. While holding Shift, right click on an empty space within the folder.
1. Select "Open PowerShell window here".
1. In the new window that appears, type `cmd` and press enter.
1. Finally, type `copy /b *.part?.iso game.iso` and press enter.
1. Wait until it finishes. You can confirm this when "1 file(s) copied." appears.

## macOS/Linux

1.  Copy all the files that share the same name and end with `.partX.iso` in a folder on your computer.
1.  Open up a Terminal.
1.  Use the `cd <path>` command and replace `<path>` by the path to your `.partX.iso` files.
1.  Use the following command as is: `cat \*.part?.iso > game.iso`.

To organize the games on your drive properly, you'll need to use [Wii Backup Manager](wiibackupmanager).
