Deletion of data file with ES File explorer

jcsaba — Wed, 18 Mar 2020 10:00:08 GMT

I have a Sony Bravia TV set KDL-43W807C with Android 7.0

I use Kodi 18.5 Leia and I downloaded ES File Explorer to manage files on the TV set.

Some problems occured with a You Tube Add-on under Kodi and one of the possibble solutions needs the full deletion of You Tube Add-on users' data file. The You tube add-on itself can be easily deleted under Kodi, but the point is the full removal of any user data left under this You Tube add-on. With ES File Explorer I can locate the folder needed to be deleted under Kodi user data file directory, but I I simply not able to delete it. No button for delete command. What can I do?

AFAIK, writing on nougat does not work. That was broken with MM and was never fixed. Works on Pie again.

But all KODI related stuff go into KODI folder and you should be able to delete stuff from there with KODI built in file manager.

Long pressing works! Thanks for the help.
