Eden Prod Keys — Setup and Firmware Requirements (v22.1.0)
Eden shipped without any bundled keys, so a fresh install will not start a single game until prod.keys is in place. It also enforces the firmware requirement more visibly than the Yuzu-lineage builds it descends from.
Where Eden looks for keys
Where Eden reads prod keys
- Windows
%APPDATA%/eden/keys/ - Linux
~/.config/eden/keys/ - Android
Internal/eden/keys/
Recent Yuzu-lineage build. Ships without keys, so it expects a current prod.keys before it will boot any game.
Setup
- Download the current release from the prod keys download page.
- Create the keys folder if it does not exist and place
prod.keysinside it. - Install a firmware generation matching that release — Eden needs both for most titles. See switch firmware.
- Restart Eden and load one game you know works elsewhere before testing anything new.
Telling keys and firmware apart in Eden
| Symptom | Cause |
|---|---|
| Nothing loads, log mentions missing keys | prod.keys absent or in the wrong folder |
| Games decrypt, then stop with a version message | Firmware missing or too old |
| Some titles work, newer ones do not | Keys and firmware are behind the releases |
Frequently asked questions
Where do Eden keys go?
Its keys folder: %APPDATA%/eden/keys/ on Windows, ~/.config/eden/keys/ on Linux, app storage on Android.<br />
Does Eden need firmware?
Yes, for most current titles. Install firmware alongside the keys.<br />
Why does Eden say my keys are invalid?
Usually the file is present but older than the firmware you installed, so the pair is mismatched.<br />
