What does it means when it says data on microSD will become unusable? because most of my games are on the sd card

it says, "Data on the microSD card will not be deleted"
I’m having a problem w my v1 switch. Works perfectly fine except when removing from dock or charger. It goes into an initializing mode for a few minutes. Then works fine. Any solutions much appreciated.
How do I start up the switch with a pro controller? The switch requires me to have the joy cons connected but I dont have them, how do I skip that?
My switch simply stays in the "initializing. Do not touch the POWER button" for hours :/ I dunno what to do anymore. I'm trying to reset because my switch suddently stopped to recognize my SD card, I bought a new one and it recognizes but it doesn't download any of my games on it, then I decided to do the reset, but right now, feeling hopeless
you're the only that helped me.
How do you get past the first screen if you dont have 2 joycons?
Are progress for games that are downloaded like dlc and games that I don't have the cartrage for deleted? Also does this 100% work for every game?
So mutch help made me delete everything on the card saved
Will this affect any of the Pokémon games?
Will any in game purchases/DLC's save?

I have not heard of a white line. May be something wrong with the inside components.

Nobody is humorless; especially me. I was known as the class clown in school, and the "funny man" at many places I was employed. Some told me to go into standup, but I didn't want to be on stage.

Ah I see okay thanks, I managed to go back to 1.0.0 with the only method which is factory resetting the console, good thing I had cloud saves too
