Add-ons and their data are two separate entities. Their data storage location is in the "userdata/addon_data" folder as already specified in Hitchner's reply, while the addons themselves are stored in the "<kodi profile folder>/addons" location.
sorry i do not have the directorys in the kodi directory? userdata directory has only ios directory? is that the right directory or are there more? if so can you direct me to them.

In Windows Explorer, go to
%appdata%\kodi\addons
and you should find sub-folders for each of your addons.
It's the shorthand equivalent of
C:\Users\<YourUsername>\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\addons
The
userdata (wiki) folder is at
%appdata%\kodi\userdata
, and the actual config data for each addon is in the
addon_data
sub-folder from there (again in individual folders per addon).
This is for a "normal" installation. If you installed via the Windows Store, the location is a bit different (it is
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\XBMCFoundation.Kodi_4n2hpmxwrvr6p\LocalCache\Roaming\Kodi\
and sub-folders from that root).
