Most of XBMC's global settings can be configured via the GUI (Graphical User Interface) under "System". However, if you have configured a setting in advancedsettings.xml it will be hidden in the GUI Settings. Profiles allows you to save all of your settings as a profile and change them at the touch of a button. It also allows you to grant access to specific folders and network shares based on the profile being used. This is ideal for systems that have multiple users.
The Settings Window
Choosing Settings from the Home Screen opens the Settings Window. In this window, you are able to configure XBMC's options to fit your taste.
Advanced Settings
All advanced settings (or 'power-user' settings) can not be accessed from the GUI (Graphical User Interface), this is to prevent normal end-users from messing up XBMC by more than they need to. To change/edit advanced settings or configurations you must manually edit XML-files (special formatted text-files) on your computer via a standard text-editor and then transfer them to your XBMC device.
For more information see the Advanced Configuration section of this manual.
NOTE!: If you have configured a setting in advancedsettings.xml it will be hidden in the GUI Settings!
Resetting XBMC settings to default
Delete your userdata folder to remove all XBMC settings and library database.
