The way I get around that is by editing the settings.xml file in userdata/addon_data/skin.xonfluence to use special addresses (which use relative paths inside the kodi folder so work anywhere). I think it's either that (which can be a bit daunting if you're not in the habit of editing .xml's) or re-make the menus (just the problem bits) on each new machine.
If you want to have a go then I'm happy to get you started - you'll need to get hold of your settings.xml file and ideally post it to a paste site, same as you would a log.
Thank you trogggy. I'll do each shortcut that isn't working properly again. Editing .xml's look daunting. Just opened it up and it looks long with all the true/false blah blah blahs. I did notice though further down with alot of the addons the following.....
<setting id="AddonSetTwo.3.Icon" type="string">C:\Users\Geso\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\addons\plugin.video.itv\icon.png</setting>
Its like that on most things so I'm assuming thats where its all gone wrong?
eg that one would become something like
special://home/addons/plugin.video.itv/icon.png
If it's a one-off it's probably easier to do it through the gui, but at least you know what's happened.
No twattery involved.
Thanks you, good to hear that I'm not a full time twat (though some would argue with that)

Type the find as C:/users/blah/appdata/roaming/kodi and replace with special://home.
Click the replace all. Job done. 2mins Max.
Then save.
Thank you. WIll give that a go. Installed notepad++ so will see if I can do it without messing up too much
