The detailed guide below will show you How to Install the FEN/Fen Lite AM Kodi Addon with important information that will allow you to use these safely, securely, and buffer-free. FEN is one of the most popular addon choices of all time. However, the developer recently removed the official repository and officially halted any future…

There is a typo in the domain:
not https://fenlightanonymouse.github.ioi/packages
but https://fenlightanonymouse.github.io/packages
As a user of the original FEN, I have been trying for several days to set up the new version. Each time I enter the url [https://fenlightanonymouse.github.ioi/packages], I get the couldn’t retrieve directory information error message. I’m using Kodi 21.2. Internet connection is fine. I’ve double and triple checked spelling. I tried it with the VPN off. I also tried the changing the github username and repo address route. Instead of settings there is Settings: FEN. Under General>Manage Addon Updates there are only 2 items: Update Action and Delay Before Running. The next section is General, which starts with Auto Start Fen when Kodi starts. Github username and repo address are nowhere to be found anywhere in Settings using basic, standard, advanced and expert levels. Settings itself looks entirely different than the screenshots in the tutorial. I also went into File Manager and tried to change the URL. I got the same couldn’t retrieve directory information error message. I had not previously set up the original FEN Light but did set up the new FEN Light without issue by changing github username and repo address and updating utilities. I have also changed the FEN repo to https://umbrellaplug.github.io and get no results on all searches. RD is enabled. I’m getting more no results responses with FEN Light than I did with FEN and would really like to use FEN. CocoScrapers is enabled. Any suggestions? This is not my first rodeo.

Once added, why does it not show in the repository list?
If I remember correctly once you add the zip file just wait a minute and the addon installs on its own.

Thanks for providing the correction to the instructions. The Instruction should be updated to reflect this.
