General questions:

How to use Permanent Wii System Settings on vWii?

IMPORTANT: Running WiiU Wii VC will result in a SYSCONF (system settings) overwrite.
To prevent this, you need to install WiiVCLaunch Aroma plugin and enable Preserve SYSCONF on Wii VC title launch.
The [Always enable WiiConnect24 on boot] is not needed and will not be enabled when using the [Permanent vWii System Settings] hack.
Almost all of the Wii Settings options are working properly with [Permanent vWii System Settings] hack.

WiiConnect24
You can enable WiiConnect24 and Standby Connection manually.

Standby Mode
The System Menu was fixed to shut down when using Power Off while Standby is enabled.
Without the fix, it would just do the Return to SM instead of shutting down, since there is no real vWii Standby Mode on WiiU.

Using “Power Off” when running games or other titles will still do the “Return to SM” instead of shutting down.
Currently, there is no known way to fix this.

EULA and Country changing
It will enable accepting EULA for WiiUs with no NNID/PNID and allow changing of the country and region.
The Wii version of EULA (usually hidden channel) must be installed since it is missing from vWii.
It is region-specific and available to download from NUS.

Internet Settings
The Internet connection list gets written (transferred from WiiU) just before booting to the Wii mode.
Only the primary connection is copied, and you can change the settings in the Wii mode but it gets overwritten on the next boot.
To prevent this, you need to install WiiVCLaunch Aroma plugin and enable Permanent Wii Internet Settings.
If you want to add a new WiFi connection to the list you should not use the Search for an Access Point button or it will end in an endless loop. To add WiFi connection you must do a manual setup.

Wii System Update
If you start the Wii Update, it can end in an endless loop. (If you don’t have the [Block Online Updates] hack enabled)
If you don’t have evWii installed and Enable 4 second power press option enabled, the only thing to do is pull out the power cord.

Format Wii System Memory
Yup, it works. It will also leave hidden channels installed, and WC24 configuration too.

All other settings work as they should…
