Unable to Install Specto Fork on any Kodi version, after a Win 7 complete re-installation. Advice, please! #937

Please follow the guide below

So I had to re-install my Win 7 Professional 3 days ago due to problems and afterwards, no matter which version on Kodi I installed (believe me I tried at least 7 different versions from the Helix to the Krypton one) and it is not working. For example, regarding the 17.6 Krypton even after enabling the Unknown Sources, and carefully checking the address for mistakes, and typing a different one, I still received the: "Unable to connect to the server. Check the network connection, etc." When I tried with the Isengard, Jarvis and Helix versions (with teh repsected name for the Specto repository to appear) it is still not working. I see it in add-ons, however when I go to "Install from .zip file" the file is Empty! Literally! Or simply does not open, hahha this is funny :P. Once again, before I formatted and re-installedd the same Win 7 version on my DELL laptop -everything was perfect! I was using the Jarvis verison. My Internet connetcion is excellent, the addresses I am typing are correct, Windows finished installing the most important updates, etc.... I don't understand why it is still failing to install (having in mind that last Friday it was working just fine). Is it possible that I am missing a yet-to-be-installed-unpdate for Win 7? Could it be that the server is temporarily down for some reason? I have currently un-installed Kodi.

Any advices and help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance! :)

Are you sure Specto is even being maintained? Maybe the fact it's been dying a slow death is part of the problem. Try Exodus. It seems to be maintained still, even if it's not by the original guy.

Hi and thank you for the reply :). I tried multiple addons, Exodus included. I even tried installing the Ares Wizard and it was the only one thatgot activated! However! When I open it the first 2 options, like "Browse addons (from where I can choose between a multiple of them)" are in gray and inactive :(. I read there is a lawsuit happening in the US with the Kodi authors, and almost everything is off since 2 months. I guess it is either with me or there sure is a major problem with the program... sigh.

Yes. I heard that Area was kaput as well cause of the lawsuits and what not. It's sad. I'm waiting for the much anticipated new add-ons from Indigo / TVAddons. It's pretty dry out there right now. I basically live in Terrarium TV, although there are a few Kodi add-ons I still use. Good luck my friend :)
