Hello guys,

I have been trying to setup advanced launcher on my fire tv running kodi isengard but I haven't been successful:

As soon as I create a new launcher I get the error : "Cannot create launchers.xml file " ; "Cannot do backup"

Then for each items I add I get the same error.

I have been helped by @UsefulG on the add-ons section of the forum but he suggested me to come here as he his not running android and we didn't resolved it !

I am able to travel in directories and select my Emu and my Rom folders in AL, but I am also able to find through file manager launchers. xml :

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<advanced_launcher version="1.0">

@UsefulG suggested that maybe AL doesn't have the right permissions to create/update launchers.xml. I have been trying to change permission in adb shell with chmod but as I am not rooted it seems that I can't change them, any thought or ideas ?

Thanks

I thought I would post the errors in kodi log as well if it helps:
