Hello, Is it possible to run an older version of Kodi in windows 11? I was using Krypton only for my music, movies and home movies. I was using transparency and with my upgrade to windows 11 I cannot restore from my backup. I really put a lot of work in that build and do not want to start over. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
