Is there an easy way to move Kodi from C: to E:, while keeping all settings/addons intact?
I'm getting very limited on space on the main windows drive and need to clean house.
Cheers.

Bullet 6 stipulates in the linked instructions:
"Right-click on the newly created shortcut and select Properties. In Target: add the switch -p after kodi.exe i.e. "E:\Kodi\kodi.exe" -p and save the change (see image)"
That step is key to avoid the scenario you mentioned.

Wouldn't the easiest thing to do is move the thumbnails to another drive and put a path substitution in advancedsettings.xml?
<advancedsettings>
<pathsubstitution>
<substitute>
<from>special://profile/Thumbnails/</from>
<to>E:\Kodi_Thumbnails\</to>
</substitute>
</pathsubstitution>
</advancedsettings>
The thumbnails are what take up all of the space.
