Hi,
from Kodi 15, when you were in an addon, you could easily go to the addon's settings just by opening the popup menu (on any list item) and there were three options:
- addon settings
- addon informations
- add to favourites

From kodi 16 or 17, the only item in the popup menu "add to favourites". To open the addon settings, you have to go back to the list of addons.
Is there any way to restore it, and if not, why on earth was it removed?

I think it's also about: how many times is it necessary to change the settings of an addon? Normally that is done only once, when the addon has been installed. After that you simply run the addon, unless I'm overlooking something very obvious.

It was a change in skin functionality introduced in Kodi v17 default skin "Estuary". You need to enter the specific add-on type menu first. If you just scroll down to "add-ons" then navigate right to select an add-on you only get the favourites option in the context menu.


Scroll down to "addons" -> select it by clicking on it -> select the add-on type in the menu for example "video add-ons" -> navigate rig.ht to the add-on of choice -> context button now gives you the choice of "information" or "settings"
