If you already have installed a Kodi addon, you can edit this addon live in the appdata/roaming/Kodi/addons/ to update it.

If you try to uninstall the addon & reinstall it via zipfile, you will get an Error until you restart the Kodi application.

Created a Branch for the Hello World addon.

It's important to name the ZIP folder and the id in the XML file (line 2) the same.

During ZIP installation procedure in kodi, also make sure that the ZIP folder only contains the 'addon' directory with specific files on top level.
