Hello Kodi People. First off, I do like Kodi very much. Secondly...however, it will not open. As previous comments have stated, the new version notification came up when I opened the older version, so I followed the prompts and downloaded the new version aaaaand bupkiss. I uninstalled kodi, waited then redownloaded again, restarted computer aaaaand still bupkiss... Am at a loss as to what to do...

Open Explorer in Windows (Windowskey + E) and paste in %AppData%\Kodi\userdata\Database in the top field.
Find the file called Addons27.db and delete it.
This file sometimes cause this issue.
Intel NUC Skull Canyon - Windows 10 Pro - Kodi 18
VU+ Solo2 - Canal Digital/CMore Max

Hey all, I have been all over the forums since yesterday, I have deleted the addons27 as suggested but now i am getting an error stating "unable to create application" when the installation wizard is finished. I am running windows 10 and was upgrading from Jarvis 16.2 to krypton 17.1, i have also completed all windows updates as others have suggested and i still cannot open kodi, can someone provide any further assistance? do not have debug log as have not been able to get into kodi.

Debug log (wiki) also gets created if Kodi crashes at starting.

Open %AppData%\Kodi\ in Windows Explorer, then open kodi.log, paste the content at https://pastebin.com/ and then post the link you get here.

This is only accessible on your computer.

You need to upload the pictures somewhere (eg https://imgbb.com/) and post the link you get here.
