This guide provides instructions on installing the Rising Tides add-on on Kodi 17.1 Krypton. Please note: Kodi 17.1 Krypton is an outdated version, and many add-ons, including Rising Tides, are no longer compatible or actively maintained. Using outdated software can pose security risks. We strongly recommend upgrading to a current, supported version of Kodi for optimal performance and security.

However, if you are using Kodi 17.1 for specific reasons and wish to proceed, please follow these steps at your own risk. Remember that using unofficial add-ons can expose you to potentially illegal or unsafe content.

Before You Begin: Understanding the Risks

Using unofficial Kodi add-ons carries several inherent risks:

• Legal Issues: Some add-ons may provide access to copyrighted material, leading to legal repercussions.
• Security Risks: Unofficial add-ons may contain malware or viruses that can compromise your device's security.
• Performance Issues: Outdated add-ons might be unstable or conflict with your Kodi installation.

Proceed with caution and understand that you are solely responsible for the consequences of using unofficial add-ons.

Steps to Install Rising Tides (Kodi 17.1 Krypton)

These steps are based on information available at the time of writing. As Rising Tides is outdated and no longer actively supported, the add-on repository may no longer be available or functional. Therefore, success is not guaranteed.

1. Enable Unknown Sources: Navigate to System > Settings > Add-ons > Unknown sources. Turn this option ON. A warning message will appear; acknowledge and proceed.

2. Add the Repository (If Still Available): This step is crucial but dependent on whether the Rising Tides repository still exists. Information regarding the repository URL is often found on community forums (which should be approached cautiously). If you have this information, follow these steps:

   • Go to System > File manager > Add source.
   • Click .
   • Enter the exact repository URL.
   • Give it a name (e.g., "Rising Tides Repo").
   • Click OK.

3. Install the Add-on (If the Repository is Accessible):

   • Navigate to System > Add-ons > Install from zip file.
   • Select the repository you added (e.g., "Rising Tides Repo").
   • Locate and select the Rising Tides zip file.
   • Wait for the installation process to complete.

4. Install from Repository (If Possible):

   • Go to System > Add-ons > Install from repository.
   • Select the Rising Tides repository (if it appears).
   • Navigate to Video add-ons.
   • Locate and select Rising Tides.
   • Click Install.

Important Considerations:

• Outdated Software: The significant age of Kodi 17.1 and the lack of support for Rising Tides make this installation unreliable and potentially risky.
• Repository Availability: The repository containing Rising Tides may no longer be available.
• Security Risks: Always scan your device with updated anti-malware software after installing any unofficial add-on.

This guide aims to provide information based on past procedures. Due to the age of the software and add-on, success is not guaranteed. Consider upgrading to a more recent, supported version of Kodi for a safer and more stable experience.
