thing is , im using kodi in portable mode aka everything youve just mentioned is in the folder that ive just mentioned aka the portable_data folder when you run kodi in portable mode , the advantage ? no more resources being flung throughout your system , i tend to go portable as much as possible if the App allows for it, keeps it all in one place, its a simple shortcut added to your kodi shortcut , you just gota add the -p at the end of your target and voila , portable mode engaged

Many people knew about portable mode, it's not a myth. You just didn't know where to put settings files for normal installation. So you resort to use portable mode to keep your settings from getting overwritten. It's OK. Nobody knew everything.
