The '''Wii Backup Disc''' is a service disc apparently used inside Official Nintendo Repair shops to transfer personal data like savegames and console settings between Wiis as part of a repair. It was the only known official application to use [[IOS16]], and it is unknown what happened after IOS16 was stubbed.

It's not entirely clear what it does; something it does *not* do -- even though it appears it might -- is allow [[Wii Shop Channel|Wii Shop]] games to be transferred between consoles. Instead, it transfers the [[ticket]] so that the user can redownload the games from Wii Shop Channel for free.
+
It appears to allow [[ticket]] files and save files to be dumped and packaged as [[RBK]] files, and RBK files to be installed. The actual RBK format is unknown, but presumably it included these.

Note: "Change WiiId" is mostly useless. WiiId is only used as your "Wii Number" that you give to your friends so they can send you Wii Mail. When you pick it, it assigns you a new random ID.

It also doesn't boot on full bricked Wiis and it's unlikely that it repairs half bricked Wiis since delete all only deletes savegames/settings

The so called "DevCerts" are two .wads on the disc FS called 'dummy-cls.wad' and 'dummy-loc.wad' both have one content which is 0x40 bytes

The "DevCerts" are two [[WAD]] files on the disc FS called "dummy-cls.wad" and "dummy-loc.wad," both of which have one content which is 0x40 bytes. One is empty the other one seems to be just random data, possibly an [[IOS]] content 0. The "dummy-loc.wad" file also has a [[certificate chain]] including the debug certificates. "dummy-cls.wad" has a ticket which the Wii does not accept, therefore it cannot be installed.

The 'dummy-loc.wad' file also has a CertChain which only works an a devkit.
