In a simple attempt to update my game to 1.1, now TOTK doesn't even appear in Yuzu and gives me an error message.
You CAN NOT use the most recent keys (16.0.2) for TOTK. You have to use the older ones (16.0.1) to run it. In order to install update 1.1, you have to downpatch the update NSP using Switch Army Knife (SAK). Put your newer keys into SAK’s bin folder and then downpatch the NSP. Then ensure you have the older keys in Yuzu’s key folder, install the update, and then run the game.

installing XCI instead of NSP on the switch
use dbi or tinwoo. if you want to convert the xci to nsp you can do that using switch army knife and install it using whatever method you were using before.

Guys How do I get this to work?
It's because you're trying to install it from a XCI file. It isn't recommended to do that and most times won't work when doing so. Try using an XCI to NSP converter. Here's one I found: https://github.com/dezem/SAK though you need a fully-populated keys.dat file for it to work. But you can just do that from Lockpick_RCM.

Mario Kart Booster Course Pass Failed To Install
I forgot to mention I converted the NSZ files to NSP through this program and downloaded the NSZ files from NSW2U. Also updated firmware and keys through EmuSAK.

✅ Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Update v2.0.0 + DLC (NSP) 🔥 Google Drive 🔥
For those like me that had the yuzu loading screen issue (sometimes capping ram usage and crashing during loading) with the update/DLC here's what i found fixed for me: Download the base MK8 NSZ via NSW2U Convert the base file nsz to nsp using https://github.com/nicoboss/nsz/releases/tag/4.0.1 Make sure you've got FW in yuzu either manually (google) installed or using emusak but you should already have this for MK8 Install the update and DLC to NAND using either softcobra or NSW2U file Run NSP from Yuzu Enjoy My base file i think was an old fitgirl one, running this on Yuzu EA2566 but also launched in standard 789 and it runs. Cheers
