So, apparently my Dolphin Wii Friend Code is the same as lots of other users that have that code by default for some reason. Is there a way I can generate a new one that is completely random and unique? Also would like to know if it's possible to generate a random keys.bin since I'd rather not homebrew my pure-clean Wii and have it's keys on my computer where a virus could steal them and mess with my Wii Shop account.
I could have sworn there was a thread on this somewhere.....

Anyway, the easiest way to do this is to homebrew your Wii and dump the NAND. Here's the thread on how: https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-ho...sive-guide

As long as your Windows Defender stays up to date you don't have to worry about viruses stealing your encrypted keys file.
