A buddy brought over his new M8 box and wanted to know how to delete some adult add-on. Yup it shipped loaded with all kinds of add-ons, and as most are non-functional and embarrassing, I thought it would be a simple task to delete inside XBMC (comes shipped with Gotham 13.2) but the remove/disable/delete is ghosted. Any add-ons that I manually add, can be deleted within this function. But not the shipped ones, there is some sort of file viewer (Android 4.4) but it doesn't seem to show a clear structure to the add-on folder.

Any words would be good, that don't include trash the box.

You have to do it using a file manager then. i use ES file explorer.

1. Open it and to the left there is a LOCAL dropdown list under Fast Access menu, open Local menu and click in 0 (internal storage).
2. Open TOOLS dropdown list and enable Show Hidden Files option, go back to LOCAL dropdown list

The whole path would be:
/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/org.xbmc.xbmc/files/.xbmc

3. Once you be in .xbmc path go to addons folder and remove the unwanted addons
4. Go one step back (to .xbmc folder) and go to userdata/addon_data and remove the data collected from the unwanted addons already removed

Thanks so much for that, I've been reading some of Minix forum messages, it's scary, glad it's not mine.
