I want to do a complete uninstall of Kodi in every aspect and start fresh. What is best way to go about this? All my artwork and nfo are local. I just want to wipe all Kodi info and data and put fresh install. I'm currently on Jarvis but will fresh install with Krypton.

Thanks
Ensure your previous build by using the export library function (I recommend separate files, which will save your meta-data in the movie folders, but you can use both for safety).

Delete C:\Program Files (x86)\Kodi
Delete C:\Users\AnthonyJS02\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\

Note: you might want to try a straight update prior to this point instead of deletion, you can always delete any time

Install what your choice is, import your back-up or or rescrape local your sources.

If you want to maintain your watched status you'll need the following in your advancedsettings.xml of the new install.
