This is one very confusing scenario, but I’ll show you how to fix it.

Repo Can’t Be Uninstalled Because of a Dependency or Module The only way to uninstall it is to go through the list of add-ons that mark it as a dependency and uninstall those first.

If you try to uninstall that add-on which has been named as a dependency for another installed add-on, then you Kodi won’t let you uninstall it or disable it. For instance, if someone develops an add-on that has a sports section that is meant to integrate with SportsDevil, that developer would name SportsDevil as a dependency to make sure SportsDevil is installed along with that add-on. This add-on can’t be uninstalled”īasically, add-on developers can name any add-ons as dependencies for their add-on. It says “ This add-on is used by the following installed add-on(s) …. If you run into this error, it can be frustrating. Maybe Team Kodi will add this feature in a future version of Kodi.Īnyway, for the time being, you will need to uninstall each of the add-ons separately, or leave them if you want, but they won’t be getting any updates. However, I wish there was an option to do cascade uninstalls… like, if you try to uninstall a repo, it will ask you if you want to also uninstall a list of add-ons from that repo that you currently have installed.

You simply uninstall the old one and install the new one, and you’re good to go. Plus, it saves a lot of hassle if a repository moves. I suppose the reason for this is because add-ons could potentially have many repositories supplying updates to that same add-on. You will need to uninstall those separately. Warning: Uninstalling a Kodi repo doesn’t automatically uninstall its add-ons. You will find that Kodi will let you uninstall any Kodi repo even if you have add-ons from that repository installed.
