Removing parent directory - Kodee Newbee - 2017-01-03

Hi -

Nice simple skin. One question - is there a way to remove the parent directory in the skin? For my folks, they inevitably keep clicking back and back until they reach the video addons and end up corrupting the files..dont ask me how lol. But is there a way to remove that ability to go back by clicking the dots at the top of a list for example. Would REALLY like to be able to take that ability out.

Thanks

Hey!

If you're running Kodi v17 (Krypton) and the Arctic: Zephyr skin, there's a bug that prevents you from accessing the "Library" section in Settings. That's where you need to go to find what you're looking for.
Check out this post if you want to fix that bug: http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=217174&pid=2433821#pid2433821

This might be a faster and easier way to fix your issue:

Switch to the Estuary skin and go to "Settings -> Media Settings -> General" and toggle off "Show Parent Folder Item".
After you've done this you can switch back to Arctic: Zephyr.

Hope this helps Smile
