WII U · AROMA-ONLY WEB LOADER
Launch the FoxPloitU Updater directly from the Wii U Browser.
The launcher starts a temporary browser payload and downloads the FoxPloitU Updater RPX from this host. FoxPloitU Updater then opens its on-console updater for official Aroma packages.
Only continue if you understand the risk of a browser lock-up. Hold the console power button for several seconds to restart if that happens.
Use the Wii U Browser to open this page. The web stage is temporary and loads the dedicated FoxPloitU Updater payload.
FoxPloitU Updater shows the available official Aroma packages on the GamePad and requires confirmation before installing.
Downloaded files are extracted to temporary SD-card paths and checked against the package manifest before finalization.
GET READY BEFORE YOU LAUNCH
For the normal Aroma/WUHB route, the SD card contains the files shown below. FoxPloitU-payload.elf is not an SD-card file: it belongs only to the optional Web Launcher and is loaded temporarily from GitHub Pages.
FoxPloitU-Updater.wuhb from the project releases page.sd:/sd:/ └── wiiu/ ├── apps/ │ └── FoxPloitU-Updater.wuhb ← recommended app file ├── environments/ │ └── aroma/ ├── payloads/ ├── payload.rpx ← official Aroma loader (Aroma Base) └── payload.elf ← official Aroma payload package
Do not rename the SD card to wiiu. The wiiu folder belongs at the card root.
Not in this tree: FoxPloitU-payload.elf is the Web Launcher payload. It is downloaded temporarily by the browser stage and must not be copied to sd:/.
WHICH FILE DO I NEED?
For a normal Aroma installation, use the WUHB file. The ELF and RPX files belong only to the optional Web Launcher and are loaded temporarily from the internet.
FoxPloitU-Updater.wuhbSD card · recommended
Copy it to sd:/wiiu/apps/. Aroma can show it as a normal homebrew app in the Wii U Menu.
FoxPloitU-payload.elfWeb-only · do not copy to SD
The browser exploit downloads this FoxPloitU stage from GitHub Pages and loads it temporarily in memory.
FoxPloitU-Updater.rpxWeb-loaded app binary
The FoxPloitU web payload fetches this application binary. It is not part of the normal WUHB SD-card tree.
payload.rpx / payload.elfOfficial Aroma files · SD card
These are supplied by the official Aroma setup. They are not FoxPloitU files and must not be confused with FoxPloitU-payload.elf.
Simple rule: using Aroma? Copy FoxPloitU-Updater.wuhb. Using the browser? The website loads the ELF and RPX automatically. You do not need to manually copy the Web Launcher files to the SD card.
WEB METHOD — TEMPORARY MEMORY LOAD
This section is the optional Web Launcher route. FoxPloitU-payload.elf and FoxPloitU-Updater.rpx are downloaded from this GitHub Pages host and loaded temporarily; neither file belongs in the normal SD-card tree.
Keep these paths separate: the payload.elf shown in the SD tree is an official Aroma file, not the FoxPloitU Web payload. FoxPloitU-payload.elf and FoxPloitU-Updater.rpx belong to the optional Web Launcher and are loaded from GitHub Pages temporarily. Do not copy either web file into sd:/wiiu/. For the WUHB route, copy only FoxPloitU-Updater.wuhb to sd:/wiiu/apps/.
HOW TO GET THE OFFICIAL AROMA PAYLOAD.RPX
sd:/wiiu/payload.rpx in three stepsDownload Payloads and Download Base Aroma.wiiu folders into the SD-card root. Extract both ZIP files, then copy their wiiu folders to sd:/ and choose Merge if asked. This places payload.rpx at sd:/wiiu/payload.rpx.Follow the official Aroma SD Preparation guide for the complete setup and FAT32 requirements.
