I'm trying to make the Skin Titan personalized.

I would like to delete some existing categories in Setting.

Such as:

Live - TV,
Profiles,
Player Setting.

I am editing the settings.xml file:

xml:
<!--List 9000-->

<control type="panel" id="9000">

<viewtype label="31437">icons</viewtype>

<right>80</right>

<top>20</top>

<height>780</height>

<width>1200</width>

<orientation>vertical</orientation>

<onup>9000</onup>

<ondown>9000</ondown>

<preloaditems>4</preloaditems>

<itemlayout height="260" width="300">

<control type="group">

<width>280</width>

<height>240</height>

<include>SquarePosterPanelLayout</include>

</control>

</itemlayout>

<focusedlayout height="260" width="300">

<control type="group">

<width>280</width>

<height>240</height>

<include>SquarePosterPanelLayoutFocus</include>

</control>

</focusedlayout>

I compress everything in zip.

and kodi does not install it

"failed to install add-ons from zip file".

How can I delete some entries in the setting part of kodi without receiving this error?

[DarrenHill]

Moved to the titan skin section - this has nothing to do with add-ons per-se.

[mardukL]

If leia,switch to skin.estuary and restart kodi before update currently used skin.

Side note , you need also edit the default setting bools . If not the skin will set those settings to true if deleted from the setrings.xml or not.

In addition.if it is just for personal usage you should is this
