Wiki states:

NOTE! This file will not exist unless created by the end-user, meaning YOU!

I looked in user data folder, and file advancedsettings.xml is not there How do I exactly create it? GUI does not provide this option. Maybe I missed something.

Thanks

It's just a text file. Right click -> New Text Document -> rename to advancedsettings.xml

Does is need to be somewhere other than in the userdata folder. My XML doc says:

<advancedsettings>
<videolibrary>
<allitemsonbottom>true</allitemsonbottom>
</videolibrary>
</advancedsettings>


Obviously it's note working. Any ideas?

Make sure its in the correct 'userdata' location - shouldn't be in the 'core' programme file location, but in C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\xbmc\userdata, or similar if not on win7/Vista

%appdata%\xbmc is the shorthand
