If it's more than one please list them here:
1. The ability to read drives that have had been modified to eliminate the Wii U format nag message.
2.
3.

Provide as much information as need to fully understand it.

basically, Wii U will always ask to format a USB drive that it can detect a MBR on but it only checks certain bytes so by altering those, you can still retain partition information but the Wii U will not ask you to format it every time you turn it on.

The problem is that no other OS or app will recognize that it's formatted either UNLESS compatibility is specifically added to it ... which it would be nice to have it added to WiiXplorer.

    Please make the following easy changes to support ustealth:

    partitionhandle.h line 39 add:
    #define MBR_SIGNATURE_MOD            0x55AB

    partitionhandle.cpp line 241 change:
        if (mbr->signature != MBR_SIGNATURE && mbr->signature != MBR_SIGNATURE_MOD) {
