Reply To: How do I turn on, and use, "download" in Kodi 17.

Thanks for your instructions on how to configure “Downloads” in Kodi however I have now created what I think is a major problem.
When I set up Kodi Download I thought I set it up to download to an external hard drive but the file was downloaded onto the Media Player Hard other files drive. In my efforts to try and download the file (failed miserably). I went into settings > external hard drive > format hard drive. Once the hard drive was formatted it asked if I wanted to download. I clicked yes. This downloaded all Add-ons, Apps etc from the media player. This process also deleted them from the media player.
As these files are now on the hard drive the media player is still functional while the hard drive is connected. I am hoping you may be able to help with the following. 1/ How do I load these files back on to the media player. 2/If this is not feasible then how do I reset the media player, and if I do, will I loose other files (Kodi etc) in the process? It would be so good to be able to reload the files from the hard drive. Hope you can help. Regards
Rick
