When I click to open, the screen will go blank and then come back to the app listing. ---

@Bill9358 Welcome to our community! Uninstall kodi and re-download 19.3 from the rapid app installer, go through the instructions. After that you will need a addon. Kodi mega guide. > [@Kodi guides and info](https://troypointinsider.com/t/kodi-guides-and-info/46543): > > Hello, this is just a mega topic to get all your kodi info. Please make sure to follow all of troypoints guides on kodi. I will have some references here. Biggest thing to remember is your kodi version and the build/addon you want. Make sure they are compatible. 19+ is the matrix stable Make sure your build or addon is updated for that version.

I had this issue, when this happened I would have to go into settings and than manage install app Scroll to kodi and force stop and than clear cache, not data, than it should launch ---
