no12nv 4 Report post Posted April 15, 2017 works great.. dont upgrade to 17.1 if youve never used the box it will only confuse you more. 16.1 is great n works well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can always switch back to confluence. So users will still be able to feel like they are using 16.1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PopsPoni 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2017 Hi Justin, Thanks for the help! Before I received your response I had installed the Kodi 17.1, no issues in downloading, just followed the directions! like baking a cake! Haha. Now being a newbie to all this, never thought of backing up all the files etc that were preloaded when I got the box? Dummy! ls there any way to retrieve those original files programs? I'm guessing not? To give you an idea what I want to have on the box : Movies, F1, WEC, IMSA, Drag racing, (F1 type ?)motor bike's, Americas cup think it's in Bermuda this summer? Ozzie motor racing ie Bathurst 1000, Tour de France, cycle racing think it's already started ? I do get some auto racing but not like we used to get! Just need what, where & how to look for these programs! So I'm going to remove the kodi 17.1 unless you give what I need to do ! will download the kodi 5.1 . Install to box. so again Thanks for your advice Peter Draddy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Uninstalling Kodi 17.1 and putting on the previous version you were using, will not bring back what you used to have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
