Kodi 21 Omega Beware

Posted a question a while ago about losing the ability to display Favourites when using the Confluence skin. I see mention of a “Favorites Window” instead. No one gave me any info on where this window is or whether it is only a developers option.

I went looking for solutions today and found in the Kodi system settings a startup option for Favourites. I tried it and I am now locked out of Kodi with no way to get past the splash screen and subsequently frozen on a black screen. So far I have forced closed it (tries to start back up but quickly locks up), clear the cache, and when trying to download Kodi and reinstall it it won’t install. I sure would like to find a way that I can get back in and undo that startup before running it like normal. Almost like a “safe mode” in windows. I would hate to uninstall and lose all the work I did for my preferred setup.

No hints from anyone, so I bit the bullet and uninstalled and reinstalled. Now the hours of rebuilding it to the way I liked it.
