Oh, that is a pain. There is no other way to call up the settings menu.
I don't know what operating system you are using, but for Windows...
1. Exit Kodi
2. Go to \AppData\Roaming\Kodi\userdata\addon_data\skin.confluence folder
3. Open the settings.xml file.
4. Look for
5. It should be true on your system. Change it to false
Restart.

to expedite could I rm the skin.confluence dir, uninstall the confluence skin then reinstall?
Here is the paste from my Settings.xml file

Nope, you are in the wrong folder and wrong settings.xml file. It is in the Userdata (wiki) folder.
2019-05-18, 23:09
Wrong file.
You're looking in /home/osmc/.kodi/addons/skin.confluence
You want /home/osmc/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/skin.confluence/settings.xml

Keep up the work on the skin .... its my fav and so simple to use .... does everything I need without too much fluff.
Thanks again, Geoff.

The same happened to me on a fire TV stick, where is the config located there?
Btw, this is a deadend situation that should not be able for an ordinary user to produce, any thoughts by the skin devs how to prevent that?
Thanks!
