I have the same problem as you with my two boxes. I have been resisting using the soft reset but took the plunge last night. The option is under the menu that is duplicated so yes it is there.
If you have loads of apps, complicated setup, lots of thumbnails then maybe best to do a full backup using xbmc backup or equivalent. Do the soft reset, reinstall the backup utility. Before restoring from the backup I deleted the service Openelec settings just in case and the video and music databases from the backup file. I then restored. That greatly reduced the re-set up time to essentially setting the content type of the data sources, running a library update and small items such as the apps home page shortcuts etc.
Good luck.
