Well, I downloaded/installed the 64bit version and copied my Kodi directory. It didn't seem to help at first. I'm not sure all that I did in the interim: I exited Kodi 18.0, started Kodi 17.6, exited & restarted Kodi 18.0, maybe rebooted (?), and everything seems to work. Not all settings were restored and some, but not all, add-ons were there. For example, I had to re-enable UPnP, had to re-install my PVR add-on, but my YouTube add-on, and a couple of others, was there. I also had to re-specify all my libraries. So, everything seems to be working well, perhaps better than before. But I'm still concerned that the next update from the Windows store will wipe everything out again.
