Archive:Migration from XBMC to Kodi

placeholder - TODO - describe what happend during automated data migration from XBMC to Kodi.

Windows

If User installs into a dir were kodi is already installed ask if he wants to overwrite it.

• a. if user says “yes” – un-install former installation and install new
• b. if user says “no” – he stays at the folder selection page and can re-decide

If user installs into a different directory

• a. He said no on 1.b – kodi will just be installed in the different directory
• b. He selected the new directory initally without hitting the question in 1. – check if there is a kodi installation in another directory – if so – ask user if he wants us to un-install it. If no – kodi will be installed side by side

At the end of installation check for an old XBMC installation

• a. if found – ask if the user wants us to un-install it
• a1 if user said “yes” – un-install old XBMC installation and move the userdata – inform the user about the moved data
• a2 if user said “no” – keep the old XBMC installation and DON’T move the userdata – inform the user about the fact that kodi will use the default profile data.
