I just managed to crawl myself out of a strange issue that I don't want to repeat. This is for Windows 10 v21H1, I have v19.2 installed, along with Silvo v8.0. I've made some changes to the XML files to try to get back to the stuff I liked before I upgraded, then tried to add a second profile. In the second profile, the only skins available were Estuary and that other touch-screen one. I thought I remembered that once you install a skin to the main profile, it is also available to install in a second profile, but it wasn't there. In the "Get More" button, Silvo wasn't listed either. So I went to Add-ins and installed it from there. After that, everything in BOTH profiles went back to the default installation, and overwriting the Addon and Addon_data folders for aeon.nox.silvo from a backup didn't restore it. Luckily another program I have (Rollback Rx) did. So, anyone have an idea of what happened? Why wasn't Silvo a skin choice in the second profile, and what can I do to make it use the installation that's already there in the main profile? Now that I think of it more, I KNOW I didn't have this issue in Kodi 18, the Silvo skin was in the listing of available skins and it just installed. Weird!
ETA: I figured it out. You have to Enable the add-ons, including skins, and other add-ons like a weather source in the Add-ons section of the system. After that, everything works as expected.
