Hello,
The following will describe a problem I'm having with kodi.
With any skin and addons on Win10 I can not create categories of addons example widget: Action Movies, Drama, Comedy.

All this happens only with Win10 instead of Android and Mac does everything correctly.
below you will find links to videos on Mac and Windows, and log (Win10) to kodi.

If I'm not mistaken the problem would be this

Did you solve this issue?  I am having this problem too.  If you solved it can you let me know the things you tried? Thanks

The message is a couple of years old. Can you be a bit more descriptive, creating sources in Kodi is a simple 'file mode' add videos. Scraping in your collection should tack on the proper genre and meta-data.
