My PS4 is fucked
| It won't start because you haven't updated? Wut?

Kind off. I accidentally cut the power before I properly turned it off, so now every time I try to turn it on, it says I need to insert a USB with the update files on it. I did that, but it said that the files weren't good enough or something.
So I'm wondering if there is any way to fix that, without completely resetting it.

No. Do a factory reset.

You accidentally flipped the physical power switch during a system update? This is a next level fuck up.
| You really should use Reddit to ask for this kind of help. I just got a PS4 myself and it keeps warning me not to cut power while it's updating or turning off. The thing is, my area has power outages kinda frequently and it worries me.

It wasn't during an update, and I am aware that it's bad to not turn it off properly. It has happened before, but then it just took a little longer to turn on afterwards. This time it got completely fucked.
| >>c30547 Persona 5 has an option to save your file to a cloud service, so you could have backed it up
| I lost all my save data the other day because my helper accidentally switched on and off my PS4 like instantly.
From that day on I've grown to appreciate ps plus and it's cloud saving.
| Connect ps' HD to pc
copy stuff that you need
let ps >update files
copy that files back to hd
???
Profit!

| My PS4 won't start, since it needs update files. Will that fuck over my progress in games/will everything get deleted? Most my stuff I would be ok with loosing, but I really don't want to loose my Persona 5 save file.
