I just uploaded 17.1 and it wont even open , it has downloaded ok windows verifies it but just wont open I went intoprograms and clicked exe on kodi but nothing? any help
@willr Any chance we can get a proper debug log out of you? Pleas try and not double post.

Using an editor copy and paste the code in a file called advancedsettings.xml

Code:
<advancedsettings>
    <loglevel>2</loglevel> <!-- Change this to "1" to hide the on-screen debug log text -->
</advancedsettings>

Try to launch Kodi, when it fails go into your %APPDATA%\Kodi\kodi.log or if you have a windows store version %LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\XBMCFoundation.Kodi_4n2hpmxwrvr6p\LocalCache\Roaming\Kodi\kodi.log and copy that log using copy & paste, go to pastebin.com and post it, save the link at the top of the page and post it in this thread. I'm sure you don't have banned add-ons so it's likely your issue will get a response.

Go to the following directory...

C:\Users\Will\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\userdata\database.

In that directory you will see a file named Addons27.db. If you look at the file size, you will see it is 0kb

Delete it and restart Kodi. It should work. If not just reboot and try again.
